The Donut Trap is a cute, coming of age tale with an immigrant family twist. The family dynamics were interesting and layered. The love story fell a little flat for me. The chemistry between the MC and main love interest just didn't feel authentic to me and the love triangle was more of a brief misunderstanding. Overall the story was good, and I'd recommend for young adults, but the writing was a little too stream-of-consciousness to keep my attention all the way through. It slowed the paced and dragged the story down just a bit.
