pickNominated 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
Starting this on audio - looking for something homey and comforting on a Sunday afternoon.
I absolutely love Ellie Alexander‘s cozy mysteries and this is such a fun series!

so-soFair warning: If you were severely bullied in school, skip this one. While high school for me was not horrible, middle school was trauma. Listening to this installment of the Cupcake Bakery mystery series was a bit of a trigger, especially the first two chapters. Mel is tricked into agreeing to cater her high school reunion by her best friend Angie. Yes, tricked. And yes, her best friend, who knew everything Mel went through in high school…⬇️⬇️⬇️

I would love to visit and enjoy the delicious coffee and treats from Torte the bakeshop in the bakeshop mystery series by Ellie Alexander!
So sad. One of my most favourite Aussie Authors. Tagged book, one of my favourites in her series about a baker.

The Bakeshop Mystery series is a favorite of mine & it‘s currently at book 20. I loved Book 5 as it‘s set in a #Chocolate festival in Ashland, Oregon where the series takes place.
I read it for review in 2017 & made the Mango Chai Latte & Chocolate Truffles with Coffee & Almond from the recipes in the back. https://kahakaikitchen.blogspot.com/2017/01/the-book-tour-stops-here-review-of_1...

I don‘t have a specific book I turn to for comfort but I do have a genre and that is cozy mysteries!
pickA beauty pageant asks for the bakery to make cupcakes for the pageant, and once again Mel and Angie are involved in a murder investigation. This one was better than some of the previous in the series, and I‘m always interested in the cupcakes (but not some of the concoctions created by the pageant participants…yuck).
Mel also has a pretty big life decision to make in this one.
Good listen! #LitsyAtoZ #LetterS #52BookClub25 #APunInTheTitle
pickFirst finish for 2025. This is the second book in the Bakeshop Cozy Mystery Series (#SeriesLive2025). A good continuation of the series. A baking competition comes to Ashland, OR and Jules is talked into being a contestant. It was a fun book, and I look forward to reading more of these series.
