![]() Which wrapped things up The Lamest Way Possible (see my Goodreads profile bio for definition/spoiler). Which lead me to getting a little bored and looking forward to getting to the ending. Paloma, the mc, is such an unreliable narrator that after awhile it was like listening to someone you know to be a habitual liar. Jayatissa is from Sri Lanka herself, making this an #ownvoices story. I enjoyed learning a little about the latter location, since I don’t think I’ve read a book set there before. ![]() Chapters alternate between present-day San Francisco and Sri Lanka 20 years ago. “There’s a special place in hell for incompetent customer service agents, and it’s right between monsters who stick their bare feet up on airplane seats and mansplainers.” You can tell from the very first sentence if it will work for you or not. Jayatissa has created a main character who’s first person perspective is unfiltered and fresh. The writing is brash, in-your-face, and unapologetic. Welcome to the Sweet and Sour Cafe, located in the heart of Outlier Land! While reviews are just starting to come in for Amanda Jayatissa’s debut thriller, My Sweet Girl, anything less than a 5-star take on it is out of the norm. ![]()
