Vacation officially starts now- I‘m headed to Fredericton to visit a friend for a week! I‘m hoping this is a short and sweet read for the plane!

I really wanted to love this one, but it was the high end of so-so for me. I loved the details of life as a high-level pastry chef, but the book started with details about NYC that didn't ring true to me so started me on the wrong foot. I also wasn't completely satisfied with the ending.
3.5/5

I found this quote the other day, not knowing how fitting of an analogy it would be for the book I was about to read. No, there was no CEO, or Susan, but there was a baker! This is the story of a thirty something chef who dreams of calling the shots, but ultimately bites off more than she can chew, pun intended. In a nutshell, Sugar is a light confection along the lines of the ones created in the book. Enjoyable enough, but low on substance.

StephBengtson The formula for a Hallmark Christmas movie: 1)Small town 2) Hunky Stranger 3)Christmas festival in the town square in which a Christmas miracle happens 7y

Purrfectpages @StephBengtson they are pretty formulaic and I don‘t even always watch them. I tend to be more of a sucker around the holidays lol 7y

StephBengtson @Purrfectpages They are so bad! I can‘t stop watching them! 😂 7y

Purrfectpages @StephBengtson that‘s why they keep making them!! 😝 7y

Although this book is probably going to make me hungry, I'm going to give it a shot next. Anyone read this yet?

Coleen Pretty cover! 7y

I happen to have a thriving cooking reality show addiction, so this was right in my wheelhouse. A fantastic pastry chef goes to a new restaurant only to discover that her ex (the owner) is in a reality show. Her own romance takes a back seat to work but I found the pastry chef details fascinating (and intoxicating—she makes you long for dessert). #romantsy

BookInMyHands The first “grown up” show we watched as a family was The Great British Baking Show. Now we are hooked on Th Big Family Cooking Showdown! 7y

Purrfectpages I‘ve been wanting to read this for awhile. Nice to see such a good review! 7y

EloisaJames @BookInMyHands wow! Wait a sec—a new cooking show I don‘t know about!!! Thanks! 7y
