I've read 20 of Lisa Kleypas's novels. Holy cow. I've never even been given that many textbooks in my entire life (and that's just assuming I actually open all of them). According to my Goodreads account, the next most read authors have like - what? - single digits of a number of books I've read. 
 There's something about her writing that just doesn't change across books. I've realised that generally, the plot remains annoyingly the same, the only distinction lies in the names of the characters and settings. In her novels, the who, when and where are different, but annoyingly, the what (the heck is going on) and how (the hell should that have happened) are more or less similar. Even the very nature of the characters show resemblance some across her novels, if you open your eyes wide enough. 
 After reading 20 books of hers but much less than 20 of the same plots over and over again, it has come to my attention that I am NOT bored of Kleypas's novels, but merely mildly irritated. 
 With Kleypas's style of writing and her flair with words, it's hard to actually become bored with literary masterpieces (according to myself). Kleypas could turn a hopelessly generic, mundane plot into her own. I've come to realise, after reading 20 novels of hers, that a good book not only requires a good, unique plot, but also a solid style of writing. And sometimes, sometimes, the excellence in the latter can overcome the lacklustre of the former. And that is where Kleypas comes in. 
 In Sugar Daddy, the flaw of a very boring storyline is overshadowed by the brilliance in character development, issues raised and pacing of the story. I loved the first half of the book - how Liberty's plight brought forth the issue of poverty and discrimination that so far no awareness campaign has managed to make me care about very much. But by the second half, the romance and sex eww was a bit too fast-paced for me. And of course, this is where the question "Now where have I heard this before?" comes to mind. Don't get me wrong - the book was still really really good, but - try reading 20 of Kleypas's books and not flipping buster. 
 I would recommend this book to anyone (above 18), and I am still glad to have read this book, boredom asides. If there is another Kleypas book that is worth reading - who cares if there is a cloning in plot again - feel free to tell me. Because, come to think of it, simply reading 20 of Kleypas's novels is still not enough.
