While there are a couple of dark moments, for the most part, this is a lovely little romp, perfect for the Great British Bakeoff fan. I did find it difficult to reconcile how Alain's character shifted but maybe that's just how dudes are :P

Roll 98 for #Roll100

Prairiegirl_reading I loved this and also I could not put into words how it‘s funny and light and also there is a scene that is really sexual assault. That just doesn‘t compute in my brain and yet I still loved it. The third instalment of this series comes out later this year and I‘m really looking forward to it. 2d

janeycanuck @Prairiegirl_reading there was a content warning in the front of my copy so I knew that was coming. Is the second one and the same vein? I‘ve gone back and forth on picking it up. I find when it‘s the setting that‘s the same and not the characters, you can end up with something totally different 18h
Prairiegirl_reading @janeycanuck I must have missed the content warning! The second book is the same structure with the baking show but different characters and the main character has anxiety. I know some people found him annoying but I personally connected with his anxiety. It‘s not as good as this one but I still liked it. 18h

Nominated for the 2026 Washington Children's Choice Picture Book Award, The Bakery Dragon delivers the simple moral that working for gold is better than stealing. Kids will love the detailed illustrations. I plan to practice reading for details using a short list of questions. #wsccpba

The Recipe Box: A Novel | Viola Shipman

Pickpick

I am a fan of Viola Shipman books but I have to say this book did not pull me in at the beginning. However since I am a fan I kept reading and really came to like the story. A young woman is trying to find herself and through a special recipe box that has been passed down through the generations she not only finds her place in the world but also comes to a better understanding of her place in her family history.

Eat Dessert First | Michelle Paris

This was a sweet romance with a lot of heart.

The story is about Abbey, a plus sized architect turned baker, and her journey towards love and self acceptance. I loved that the book explored deeper topics like fat shaming and aging parents. Caring for an ailing parent is a very common thing these days, but I rarely see it depicted in books.

Macarons | Annie Rigg
post image

I love to bake and used to have a little baking business on the side, but for some reason I have always been intimidated by the thought of making macarons. So just using this as a little extra motivation to get off my butt and just do it. 🧑‍🍳

Monumental task,
my fear I can‘t mask — I‘ll
succeed, then I‘ll bask.

Amiable My boss is also a fabulous baker who would love to someday have her own bakery—and macarons are her favorite thing to make! 1mo
