Because not only is it an entertaining and well-spun story, but in the realms of the author’s prolific body of work, if there’s ever a book she’s penned that I could label sweet (yes, I said sweet and JCP in the same paragraph), as well as accessible to a wider reading audience, it’s this one.įirst of all, let’s touch upon the fact that Jordan Castillo Price has never met what I would call a run-of-the-mill plot, which is why her books are always such a diverse experience. Whatever the reason, it makes no sense that I waited so long to read this book.
