A review by thesandyreader
Sparrow and Vine by Sophie Lark

2.0

This is a very controversial book. I got the ARC copy of it and not long after quite a few things came out about quotes of the book and a rough non-apology from Sophie about it. 

With all that in mind, I’m going to keep this brief. 

The book was cute. I enjoy a good romance and a save-the-day vibe. The slow burn was spicy and the teasing was lovely. I enjoyed them all pulling together as a family. 

I do not enjoy unnecessary racist comments in a book and unneeded comments praising Musk as he destroys our government and tries to ruin progress. I also do not appreciate it when authors don’t own up to their mistakes. 

It’s a shame. This is a fun book and would have been an enjoyable 4 star romance.
