From Kirkus:

“Perry and candy have a magnetic relationship, inexorably drawn to each other… the author unwraps much more than a lifetime’s fixation on candy. While Perry’s accounts of candy consumption are sensual, almost tactile, and indescribably delicious, each chapter is also a pathway to deep recollection of the past, not all of it sugarcoated… Perry can tap into the communal candy memory with a fine comedic touch, calling forth many a Yes! moment. With flair and a winning nostalgia, a certified sugar hound of the first order shares her obsessions.
