The game requires 4 player and there were 5, so the friends have a draw to see who will sit out. Depressed about the neverending rain outside, they decide to play Canasta (a card game). One summer weekend, Henry goes to stay at a friend's mansion. The story starts with Henry Sugar, a wealthy and idle playboy who likes to gamble and is not above cheating to win. This famous tale is actually a story-within-a-story-within-a-story-within-a-story. 1.3 The Man Who Could See Without His Eyes.Sugar Birds pushed the right emotional buttons for me, and if you love gritty coming of age stories, this is the one to read. As if the travails of growing up are not enough, Bostrom has provided the storyline with antagonists that you will love to hate. Aggie has that spunk and curiosity common among girls her age, while Celia is in her rebellious phase and is trying to make sense of what is happening in her world.
Both Aggie and Celia are sympathetic characters that complement each other by their distinctive characteristics. There is hardly any false step that Cheryl Grey Bostrom has taken in writing a story about coming of age. This is just the right story about young people navigating through growing pains. Sugar Birds is familial tension at its finest. She hears about the fire incident that draws her to help search for Aggie, and this is where their lives begin to cross. Meanwhile, sixteen-year-old Celia Burke is also running away from her own problems. Aggie flees the woods with the guilt that her parents have perished in the fire. Cautious not to upset her mother’s volatile condition, she sulks and lights a small campfire that spreads rapidly, setting the woods and their cabin ablaze. Her mother had admonished her to stay on the ground as climbing was too dangerous. Her father introduced her to sketching and the wonders of nature to keep her mind off her mother’s worsening depression. Aggie Hayes enjoys the outdoors and loves climbing trees and sketching the bird nests that she finds. Sugar Birds, a novel by Cheryl Grey Bostrom, accomplishes so much that you can’t help but fall in love with it.
