I have heard so many people raving about her so I am hoping I like another book better. This is the first one I have read but I am planning on trying a few more of her books.<br /><br />@Pepca - I'm glad to hear you were also bothered by the writing style (well, not glad that you were bothered, but glad that I'm not the only one that feels that way!) Everyone I know loves the writer so much and I was wondering if I was the only one that wasn't quite happy with the story.<br /><br />@Jennifer - I didn't love the writing but I do think I will read more of her books. Her stories are definitely amazing!<br /><br />@Sarah - They are definitely good beach reads. I am going on a cruise this winter and I think I am going to have to get another of her books for that. And I actually read a sample of The Sugar Queen at the end of this book and added it to my TBR - it sounded really good.LLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11194834748090369779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5076308692811460989.post-21609785479241057672011-06-25T22:18:33.225-07:002011-06-25T22:18:33.225-07:00This is my favorite Sarah Addison Allen book!

Not the best literature of course, but I love it still :-) <br /><br />I highly recommend The Sugar Queen if you decide to give her another shot. It had a twist that I totally wasn't expecting, and left me a little more impressed with SAA.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11196903315080725315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5076308692811460989.post-71778353342163050652011-06-23T13:17:11.782-07:002011-06-23T13:17:11.782-07:00I read this a couple years ago and I loved it.
