Jessica's Book of the Week

The week book is Bittersweet by Sarah Ockler.
Haleema (screen name) rated Bittersweet two out of five stars. She that Bittersweet was too cliche. She felt like certain scenes were so girly, that you could pretty much call what was coming next. She thought that Bittersweet was like a lot of other books. She thought that characters betrayed the same character traits that show up in other books. Haleema saw the main character as quiet and shy (like in all books), while the best friend was loud and funny. She just thought that the book was too cliche.
Laura (screen name) rated Bittersweet five out of five stars. She thought that Bittersweet was very relatable. She thought that the book explained the choice of staying and leaving really well. Laura loved how Ockler caught the emotions of the choices the characters had to make. Laura loved this book and strongly encourages you to read Bittersweet. 

I would rate this book four out of five stars. I loved how it was written, but I sometimes thought that things didn't develop. I would recommend this book though, because it was a nice little read. I did really like how the main character thought out her problems through the making of cupcakes. I thought that Ockler made the main character very interesting because of her cupcake talent. I would recommend Bittersweet as a nice Saturday read.
