Sugar and Salt by Susan Wiggs
4.25
emotional informative medium-paced

This was my first book by Susan Wiggs and won't be my last!

This book was in part light and sweet. Most of this book though is tough to read. It's sad the injustices of "justice" through our court systems are.

Margot reinvented herself as a successful BBQ restauranteur, but her past is a heavy weight she has to bear. I don't want to give anything away, but she goes through a horrific event and then is dragged through so much heartbreak and uncertainty. She never should have had to deal with what she had to deal with after the incident.

There are topics on rape, abortion, the power of wealth and money, a women's right to decide for herself in her body and what she does with it.
