Emma E Fry amazes by all the choices she made for this book. The title relates instantly to sugar sweet Mauritius, the darling of tourists and the haven of love and harmony. The strength of Emma's words, the beauty of her descriptions are just too real. The tantalising scents and tastes of enchanting Mauritius hearken to life at the touch of her pen. This book is 'unputdownable' in one invented word! Before reading I have also shared with my Auntie Katie who read through it till the very last pages on the same day and she also thought it was really very well written. I will be offering a copy to my most treasured people because the book speaks of a Treasure Island in every sense of the word 'Treasure', and it relates to the Mauritian heritage in the highest doses of justified prettiness and hope. Mauritius is beautiful and Emma captured its essence most observingly in one captivating story which is touched by the magic of FAITH. I loved every sentence.
Best ever novel i have read in ages., August 9, 2012
This review is from: Sugar Cane (Kindle Edition)
Let me just say that i have not read a book in ages. The last time i can remember having read one would go back to as far as 1985 or so. Anyway coming to this novel, all i can say is that it is one most intriguing and captivating book i have ever read. I finished it in almost 4 days and the last time i was reading it was from 1 am till about 8 am . I spent a whole sleepless night since i wanted to know what was unfolding chapter after chapter. I am of Mauritian origin and have been to many of the places mentioned in the book, yet the way they were described in the novel made me want to re visit them. Once i started the novel, i would not bulge and got stuck to reading for hours. What was interesting though was the feeling of being part of the plot or it was like i was watching a movie.I am even thinking about asking a few movie directors if they would be interested in putting all this in images. Hats off to the author Emma Fry. I look forward to reading more of her future works. She has just made another big fan;)
