Review: Sophie's Dilemma

Sophie's Dilemma Sophie's Dilemma by Lauraine Snelling
My rating: 💛💛💛

Sophie’s Dilemma is about a girl who is still very naïve and immature which results in her making choices which were not clearly the best.

Though, this resulted in a journey where Sophie had to step up, make better choices and grow up.

Though I did feel throughout the story, Sophie’s selfish wishes came through a lot, which still showed she had a lot of growing up to do.

The ending did end a bit abruptly for me, since there was a big jump for me between what she still really wanted and the decision she ultimately made.

*I listened to the audiobook on Everand.*
