I don't know about you, but I'm a big lover of ice cream.

I have a favorite sundae that's my go to at my favorite ice cream place - Mel's Downtown Creamery.

It's has marshmallow ice cream and I get hot fudge and marshmallow topping. 

It's delicious.

I also love reading about ice cream. Here are some fun middle grade and YA books about this sweet dessert:

My thoughts on these books:

Love & Gelato: 

I lost myself in the pages of Italy - the sights, the relationships, and of course the gelato. I

Sprinkle Sundaes:

Friendship, books and libraries, and Ice cream! What's not to love?

Stay Sweet:

Feminism and Ice cream in dual timelines. This book was perfection.

Shake it Off:

Finding what makes you happy and making amazing milkshakes to help save your family's farm.

I just finished this book, review coming soon.

Sprinkles and Secrets:

I loved that Sophie had big dreams and she worked to make them happen.

I read this one ages ago, when it was titled Truth or Dairy.

Tween Tuesday Review: Sprinkles and Secrets

 * Companion novel to It's Raining Cupcakes *

Sophie and Isabel are best friends, but right now Isabel's in New York City and Sophie's feeling down. Her mother surprises her with tickets to see Wicked.

More than anything, Sophie wants to act. Her dream finally has a chance of coming true when a friend from camp calls with good news. Her mother saw Sophie's acting and wants to represent her.

Sophie's over the moon, until she learns her first audition is for a bakery  - the main competitor of Isabel's family business. Sophie's torn between loyalty to her best friend and her dreams. Which will she choose? It seems everyone has a different piece of advice for her.

My Thoughts: I really liked this sweet tale filled with friendship, Dreams, and sweets. I loved the mention of sweets throughout the book; it made me want to bake. I felt bad for Sophie and the choice she had to make. I loved Dennis and his moments with Sophie. I love that they were a little nerdy. I loved how Sophie wasn't afraid to dream big - or admit the truth. A very fun read.
