Satara has had enough. Her best friend having an affair with her husband of six years? No thanks. He'll learn the hard way that he crossed the wrong woman. Doesn't really matter, because he wouldn't be her first...
3.5 / 5! First of all: have you seen the book's cover? Amazing! Second of all: who doesn't love a book about a woman who's had enough of men having their way with her and taking matters into her own hands? If you want a book about female rage and unhinged women, this is the book for you. Because Satara is exactly that. Full of rage and completely unhinged in her doing, emotions, and thoughts. I have to say that I was a bit frustrated with Satara from time to time because lots of things she did are not rational enough for me. I caught myself shaking my head in disbelief and even sighing out loud why Satara did some of the things she did. BUT in hindsight: it all made sense. I didn't think it would, but it actually did. There's a grand finale in the book and I definitely dig the epilogue, but I don't think the story would've suffered if the revelation would've been.. maybe 5 pages longer? Or less detailed in some points and some meek side characters, but emotionally more damaging for the reader (trying to keep this as spoiler-free as possible). I feel like the book took a lot of time to really form Satara and her character but then just ends with no time or room for really feeling the ending. So, all in all: Loved the rage, loved the 70's feel to it, was sometimes frustrated with Satara, felt a bit distanced to the grand finale, LOVED LOVED LOVED the twist. Thanks to NetGalley and Galaxy Press for the advanced copy of Sugar in exchange for an honest review.
