Book scavenger hunt- baked treat #hauntedshelf @PuddleJumper #flerken
pickThe cover is gorgeous, the story okay, her description of Milwaukee wonderful! Go Brewers and cheese curds, lol.
pickI decided to listen to this book to give this author another try after I didn't like a different book I had read. So, I went into this with low expectations. But, it surprised me. The story drew me in from the beginning. It was predictable, but let's face it, most romance books are. This one was cute, yet I didn't find it overly sweet. There was a good balance to it.
pickI put this one on my TBR stack solely based on the delicious-looking coconut cake on the cover! I enjoyed this somewhat-predictable rom-com about a relationship gone wrong, a bad restaurant review, and an unexpected friendship that turns to love.
pickI liked the book and Ms. Reichert‘s writing. I always enjoy a book with cooking, baking and romance in it. Plus, Wisconsin!
Enjoying this one!

These covers make me hungry.
so-soLou discovers her fiancé in a compromising position, has a horrible shift at work...and of course it‘s the day Al reviews her restaurant. Thanks to his review, her restaurant starts to lose business and she‘ll be forced to close if things don‘t turn around. Meanwhile Al falls in love with Lou, changes his outlook on Milwaukee, it‘s food, people and culture, and is scared to lose Lou if she finds out who he is. Very predictable, but not a bad read.

I loved learning about the various local foods. I loved the characters most of the time hut part of the book they were infuriating.
Her books always make me crave yummy food... #foodonthecover #magicalmay @Eggs
I love finding mentions of my real life favorites in fiction novels. I LOVE Bobby Flay! Does anyone else get excited at these kinds of references?
This was the first month in a long time that I exceeded my reading goals and while I liked many of them the tagged book was by far my favorite!! #favoritenovemberread #gratefulreads @OriginalCyn620 @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
pickA giant love letter to Milwaukee and I loved every page!!! Beautifully written with well developed character. A ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for sure!!
pickA sweet, clean romance and a charmingly wonderful story about Milwaukee and the food scene that truly makes me want to go back again. A perfect summer read.
pickLight and fluffy and just what the doctor ordered. Romance is no longer my go to genre but every once in a while you need some brain candy. The two main characters were charming and the supporting cast was absolutely adorable. Otto and Gertrude came very close to stealing the show in my opinion.
My only complaint was the narrators voice when doing Al - the male main character. A little too high pitched. Otherwise a solid pick in my eyes.
pickA predictable romance done well is always a delight and that is what you get with this book. Two charming main characters with a lovable supporting cast and lots of yummy food descriptions ❤️ I‘m looking forward to reading more from this author.
On to the next!
so-soThis was a fun, light read, nothing exciting or memorable. Amy Reichert‘s A Simplicity of Cider definitely showed her growth as a writer when compared to this one. The true star of this book is Milwaukee, Reichert‘s love for the city shines through.

Breezed through half of this book yesterday, hopefully I‘ll finish the rest today! No fancy breakfasts here this week, I have to make do with easy and convenient. Anyone else eat these? They‘re pretty good!
Finding it a bit ironic that the food item I pick for this #booked2019 prompt is the one food I am allergic to. At least it doesn‘t make me crave the cake! 😂😂

#currentread is something light and fluffy!
Day 5 of recovery is not off to a good start. I would not be surprised if I go back to bed soon after I finish my morning tea. (which I‘m hoping will help get my digestive system back on track). #booksandtea
Thankful for no visitors today! A close friend popped by yesterday with a bunch of homemade healthy lunches. I‘m so grateful for her help, and she brought exactly what I needed! 💛💛 #endowarrior

1️⃣ Tagged Book, which I own but have not read yet.
2️⃣ Marie Antoinette, with Kirsten Dunst
3️⃣ Any song by the alt band CAKE, which I loved in the 90s!
so-soThis was the first book I‘ve read by this author. I enjoy books that center around food so much. I have another in my to reads called The Simplicity if Cider as well. This book has a unique story...got a little slow in the middle...but finished strong. A rather predictable ending, but had a few charming twists as well. A light read. Good for vacationing.
Just started but already liking it so far ❤.
Also now craving cake 🍰🍰🍰
So since I am officially down 20lbs I will read about cake instead of eating it! 😊
so-soTravel Ad for Milwaukee: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (I totally want to visit now)
Food Porn: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (🤤)
Romance: ⭐️⭐️
Writing: ⭐️⭐️
Sexiness: Negative ⭐️
All in all, this was a fun audiobook to listen to while I was cooking, but nothing I‘d recommend. Although now I do want to make a coconut cake...
pickThis is predictable love story. You see it coming from almost the beginning. BUT!! The writing is delicious and so is the food and the tour of Milwaukee. I look forward to more from this author. #romantsy #readwomen
Maybe it‘s the fact that I‘ve cut out carbs and sugar and I‘m really craving something sweet, but this is my next read.
Edit - This was a cute, quick read. I got major You‘ve Got Mail vibes! Likable characters, a fun plot, just an easy, breezy romcom.
I just found out this is set in Milwaukee... I feel I need to move it up on my TBR!! #setinmystate #riotgrams
pickI liked this one. It wasn‘t “I can‘t stop reading” good but definitely an enjoyable ride. She definitely made Milwaukee at least somewhat appealing lol
When one of your most favorite insults makes it into a book. Twat-waffle 😂😂😂 and I use asshat a lot too lol
I started this last night and while probably totally predictable, so far I‘m enjoying it quite a bit.
I need something light after finishing State of Wonder last night. Starting this #arc I won from #goodreads
pickI loved this book! Great story that takes place in my state.(I don‘t find many of those) it‘s a fast read and the cake in this book sounds amazing. The recipe is included so I will have to try it one of these days.
pickDon't read this book with an empty stomach. It will make you hungry! Otherwise I liked it, I thought the characters were funny 😁

Includes luscious sounding food descriptions & great travel tips for Milwaukee, "Coincidence" is worth adding to you TBR.
pickA cute romance between a chef and a food critic, full of delicious descriptions of food. 😋

pickLoved this book from the beginning. Definitely recommend this book.
pickSuch a good book! Lou is a chef and owner of a small restaurant. Al is a food reviewer that uses a pseudonym. Al reviews Lou's restaurant on the worst day. They become friends not knowing this. What will happen when they find out???
Worth a read!
