Review:
"The Spare Prince" by Sarah Mc White
My Perception:
'The Spare Prince' is a long but interesting read that will keep your attention throughout. At times, I felt sorry for Lenox in what she was going through...her sister being ill, suffering from Alzheimer's, having to care for her nieces and nephew, having a boyfriend that left her at a time she really needed him, and having to work two jobs. However, Lenex was made friends by various friends where she worked, especially one who told her Lenex was required to take care of herself. Will Lenex listen to what is being said to her?
The story has many parts, and the reader must keep up and follow it to see how well the author combines them all.
We have Lenox meeting a new friend, but then her ex-boyfriend reappears. How that turns out will be a story in itself. I loved how Lenox put that ex in his place for what he had done to her. The characters in this story helped the story to be well-developed, giving the story the boost needed to keep the story going so well.
By the end of this story, will Lenox finally get what she deserves? Well, from the epilogue, you will see how the story ends. This is where I will stop and say you must pick up the good read to see how it all comes out for Lenox in the story of 'The Spare Prince.'
