Omfg this book was so fucking good, I'm kinda at a loss for words. If there is one thing I have a weekness for, it's a cooking/baking competition setting in books & this one absolutely delivered. Honestly, just reading about reality tv in general fascinates me.??
Even though I didn't think much of her in the beginning, by the end Rosaline really grew on me. Harry was a fucking cinnamon bun, Amelie was an icon, Anvita a legend and so were almost all the other characters, except for the shitty ones. Can Alan go die in a ditch please and thank you.??
I EVEN CRIED!!! AND THAT'S THE HIGHEST PRAISE I CAN GIVE A BOOK.??
It made my heart swell like a balloon and was also so unbelievably funny?????
All the discussion around mental health, toxic relationships, shitty parents and finding yourself really got to me. It was so fucking spot on.??
Also, this book was wonderfully queer, so that made me really happy.??
Don't even get me started on all the baking talk! It weirdly turns me on. /j
And the romance was cutest thing on earth??? I HOPE WE SEE MORE OF THEM IN THE NEXT BOOK. SPEAKING OF WHICH, HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO WAIT UNTIL 2022?????
ALEXIS HALL, TAKE ALL MY MONEY UWU??
