![]() ![]() ![]() The inclusion of a few of the Sugar Babies' recipes between chapters is quaint and homey. The girls are baking and cooking a lot, and that would have offered the author plenty of opportunity to spark up the story with more colorful descriptions of the sights and smells of the kitchen. There is a lot of telling in this story, and while not devoid of the other senses, I would have appreciated the story more had my five senses been sparked. It starts in present day and then jumps back to a year in the past as Tess tells her story. The structure of the story is interesting. When tragedy strikes, the Sugar Babies and their friends and family must rely on their faith to deal with their pain. Sugar Babies has a chaste high school love interest, strong messages about friendship and family, as well as a strong message about faith and religion. I think Sugar Babies would be an excellent name for their bakery! They refer to themselves as the Sugar Babies, and they aspire to go to culinary school and eventually open their own restaurant. Olivia (AKA Ollie), Evy and Tess are cousins and best friends. ![]() Sugar Babies is filed strong emotions on both ends of the spectrum-great laughs and big tears. ![]() It is a YA Christian novella that is suitable to all age groups. I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. ![]()
