Salt and Sugar by Rebecca Carvalho

medium-paced

3.0

Salt and Sugar is a Romeo and Juliet retelling set in rival bakeries. While parts of the book are really good other parts read as kind of childish. I didn't enjoy the childish name calling and bullying. I also couldn't stand Lari's mother she came off more harsh than I think was intended. It seemed like she never accepted that Lari was grieving as well. The middle of the book felt slow to me but I felt that it ended strong. Overall it was a just okay read.
