Not to jinx it or anything but I’ve been feeling better lately! I also finished another book, and I’m really proud of myself.
I wish it wasn’t something I had to work for, I wish it was just easy, but this is how it is, and that’s what I have to do if I don’t want to be miserable. lmao. You know what I mean?
Anyways, I hope you like my posts this week!
Thanks for reading, hope you’re all doing well, and staying safe!
I just want to start this review off by saying that although I don’t usually really like books about magic, this one was a gamechanger for me. How can a book be both adorable and heart wrenching? I’m not sure how the author did it, but they did, and I’m very thankful. From the moment I picked this book up, I was obsessed, and though I haven’t finished a book in about two months, I knew this was something I was going to be obsessed with.
Wren is a young girl who’s lived a hard life. As a young orphan, she was scooped off the streets and put into a fast paced job in a bakery and dessert shop for years, until one day a man comes in and takes her away very suddenly. It turns out that her cupcakes are more than just delicious and beautiful, they’re magical.
And so this starts the longest couple weeks of her life. She’s whisked away to the Confectioner’s Guild, and immediately roped up into a murder investigation, and worst of all, she didn’t do it. Someone’s framed her, and her and new newly appointed family are determined to prove her innocence before she’s executed.
The thing I most enjoyed about this book, was that although I didn’t really know what any of the characters looked like exactly, it was very easy to envision them and the world they lived in, because that wasn’t the important part of the book. It was so exciting and interesting that I couldn’t get enough of it, and I immediately put the next book on my wish list. Though i almost never read the extras in the back, the sneak peak of the next book, I had to read it in this one! I’m obsessed. I want to know more now!
That being said, I think this is one of my favourite books that I’ve read all year and I can’t wait for the next one. If you think this is something you’ll like, I recommend you definitely check it out, and even if you’re not a big fan of magical books like I am, I think this book is really great for almost anyone!

Here’s a link to the author’s Twitter, if you’d like to catch up with them!
Thanks for reading, and if you have anything to say about this book, I’d love to chat about it in the comments! Stay safe, and have a great day!
I know I’ve had a lot of these posts lately, but this year has been very stressful for tons of people and I think we all know the feeling of anxiety.
But what can you do when you can’t make it go away? I’d love to just sink into a book and lose myself, but I really just can’t even concentrate enough to start it. My anxiety has been so high the last week that I can’t really do anything, honestly.
Books are something that have let me escape from the world for many years. They’re something to concentrate on, to fall in love with, and to really just escape from the world with. I never thought that they would one day be too much to handle, especially with my intense reading history.
I know it’ll be better one day, but right now, everything just feels like too much, you know? Anyways, if you have any advise on how to get back into the thing you love the most when everything is overwhelming, I would really appreciate hearing it!
Thanks for reading, stay safe, and hope you have a great night!
