Sugar Queen Part 2

Ms. Mia Maree has posted section 2 questions for Sugar Queen. 

1. At the end of Chapter Three, a new character, Chloe, was introduced. The author mentioned how books seem to appear to Chloe when she needs them most. What do you make of all of this? I think she has some kind of special "powers" that use books to influence her in making decisions in her life. Unfortunately (sometimes), she has no control over these books.
2. After reading about how Jake cheated on Chloe, do you think Chloe should have forgiven him? Why or why not? I think with cheating, it is so hard to say yes or no. Yes, people make mistakes. But how do you know they won't do it again? It's so hard to gain trust back. I think in this instance, Jake was sincere in his apology, so I thought it was ok to forgive him.
3. Why do you think Adam suddenly became interested in Josey? Because of the mystery. He never had thought of her like that before, and when he found out she was in love with him, his views of her changed...even if he didn't feel it at first. When she pulled back, he became more interested, naturally.
4. In Chapter 6, Josey takes her mother, Margaret, to visit Livia. While Livia and Margaret chat, Josey has a chat with Livia's granddaughter, Amelia. Josey suggests that Amelia might want to have a life of her own, but Amelia shrugs Josey off and dismisses the idea. What enables Josey to think about freeing herself from her mother, rather than becoming like Amelia? I think Chloe finally gave Josey the idea that there is life outside of her mother's home. She saw she didn't want to be like Amelia, and considered life outside of what she had known.

What are you thinking of this book so far?
