From the high-rises of Canary Wharf to the turquoise pools of Miami, Sugar, Baby is an intoxicating, darkly funny debut novel about beauty and greed, desire and delusion, from an extraordinary new voice in fiction.
Agnes Green is turning 21 and her life is heading nowhere. Still living at home with her devoutly religious mother in a lifeless suburb, she works as a cleaner by day and spends her nights secretly going to clubs and dating Toby - who loves arthouse film, getting stoned, and ignoring her texts.
That is until she meets Emily, the daughter of one of her cleaning clients, who lives in London and works as a model - and a sugar baby. Emily's lifestyle is the escape Agnes has been longing for: tasting menus, private flights to Paris and Miami, rich older men who shower her with compliments and designer gifts. But it comes at a cost.
Agnes' new life is beyond her wildest dreams, but it comes at a cost. As she begins to stray further from her mother's holy teachings, she must decide how far she is willing to go to be adored...©2023 Celine Saintclare (P)2023 W. F. Howes Ltd

This book was okay nothing really stood out or kept me engaged to the point where I couldn’t wait to get back to it.

Not really any key moments

Both the Story and Storytelling are engaging, I could have sat and listened to the whole thing in one sitting.

This book discusses the glamour of sex work, but doesn't forget about the downsides with topics like religious trauma, morality and more coming up throughout, it felt a well rounded view of the women portrayed and their experiences.

In short, a fabulous debut! Highly Recommend

Loved it!
