The Opposite Of Chocolate

OK, I bet no-one has even heard of this book. It's one of those that screams 'GIRLY' just from the synopsis.

What's It About??
It follows the life of a girl (Sapphire) who is pregnant at fourteen. (Don't worry, I haven't given anything away!) It's about the decisions she has to face.
It also has a sub plot about a 'firebug' who has been causing fires across the dry city for weeks.
As the two stories intertwine, we learn more about the characters.

It was a good book, but I felt like it struggled to get to a point. I would have liked....more.

Star rating out of 5:
2 1/2.

I read part of this but I didn't get far. Partly because it was just before my birthday and I took it back to the library so that I could start on one of the books my mother bought me and partly because I didn't see anything amazing in the first few pages. Nothing that grabbed my attention. Still, that's not a fair judgement seenas I didn't reach the end.
