Sugar by Deirdre Riordan Hall
3.0
I read this in one sitting, zipping through it pretty quickly. It was engaging and pulled me in, there were a few moments of what felt like author-splaining where parts of the plot were painfully spelt out unnecessarily but hey ho. It all started very formulaic but I wasn’t expecting the direction change in the middle.
It also bothered me that sugar really pulled her punches when she shouldn’t have (or wouldn’t have in reality, I don’t think). I wondered how realistic the school scenes were really, and some of the characters were painful one dimensional.
Still, I enjoyed it well enough. Worth a read, I’d say.
