 I’m reading Fool for Love by Beth Ciotta:

“How many years do you think I’d get for death by Cuisinart?”

I saw this book on someone’s blog and thought it looked like a fun story. It’s the first in Beth Ciotta’s Cupcake Lover’s series and as a huge cupcake fan, I had to look into this further. I’m only about 100 pages in, but am loving the story so far. Doesn’t the cover just invite you in? I also love that there are cupcake recipes included in the back – I foresee some baking in my future!!!

    The cover is adorable! I hope you will enjoy the book. (I like to bake mini cupcakes; they're cute and just the right size for a little treat.)

    The cover is gorgeous and have to agree very inviting! Bit reminiscent of Meet Me at the Cupcake Cafe by Jenny Colgan though with the recipes?
    Still i look forward to reading this sometime! 😀
