Review of 'The Lights of Sugarberry Cove' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
3 and half to 4.
I like Webber's books for some pleasant diversion, and I liked her characterization of the lake's magic, and the surprise twist at the end.
But I am finding her characters a little too predictable and flat. Leala in particular just seemed like a whiny brat to me that I grew increasingly annoyed with. And the denouement of each character as they changed and grew seemed a bit stretched.
Still, though, there were some very imaginative elements and I liked the overall feel of Sugarberry Cove. Enjoyable chick-lit.
ps: I see that Ms. Webber lives in Cincinnati. That explains it.. I kept wondering how there was so much time pleasantly spent outdoors in Alabama in the summertime. Even at a lake, the heat and humidity are BRUTAL. :)
