Laurel is excited to spend the week on an all-expense paid trip on a luxury cruise with her best friend, Viv. The cruise is going to release the miracle weight loss drug, Solu. The passengers on the cruise are promised that with the help of Solu they will lose 5-10% of their body fat in one week! Everything is going great! Laurel runs into her celebrity crush, Tom Forelli, who seems to be into her as well! But as the cruise progresses, things begin to go wrong. Everyone who is taking Solu starts to act moody and irritable- almost like drug addicts. No matter how much Solu they get, they still want more. The cruise goes from a dream experience to a nightmare as life on the ship begins to unravel and people do anything, even kill, to get their hands on more Solu. Marie Lu, author of Legend, said “Simultaneously terrifying, hilarious, and action-packed, Sweet is a wild ride that holds up a warped mirror to our society. I loved it from the first line to the last.” If you like horror novels, you should definitely read Sweet!
