A review by iaproton
The Secrets of Sunshine by Phaedra Patrick

Did not finish book. Stopped at 40%.
 Quite sad & depressing,the first chapters talk quite a lot about Poppy’s father & how her mother Jasmine died,how their lives have fallen apart for about 1/3 of the book with frequent descriptions of their grief & emotional pain. I didn’t really care for the quirky music teacher who talked weirdly/was badly voiced by the narrator or the strict headmistress. This 1/3 wasn’t as relaxing as expected with a woman who’s gone missing supposedly almost drowning & the father ending up in hospital ,the narration didn’t help.
