Sylvie Jones has been wishing to attend the magical culinary school: Brindille School of Culinary Arts and Magic for ages. A long time ago, her mother was accused of cheating in a competition. Now they both have a chance to clear their names.
Her mother's been invited to participate in another cooking competition.
Many students in Sylvie's class are hoping that she will fail. Sylvie overhears many disgruntled comments. Some of them lead her to discover a plot that could ruin her mother's dreams and her own. Can she uncover the truth about what happened all those years ago? Could her mother be in trouble now?
My Thoughts: I love the idea of magic
influencing baking. Sylvie had a hard time trusting people - and with good
reason given her mother's history. This book had lots of twists and turns.
Sylvie was very much a rule breaker, with good excuses. Like in any school, you
had bullies, cheats, and some obsessed with
rankings. This was such a fun read; I loved the class moments and cooking moments.
While this book did wrap up, I can't help but wish for more stories set in this
school.
I enjoy stories that involve baking. And the magic is a plus. Thanks for sharing this story this week.
