2012 book 9

Sarah Ockler's Bittersweet
Long-time readers of this blog know I'll read anything involving cupcakes, hence my excitement for this book, about a teenage ice-skating star who found out her dad was cheating on her mom right before a big competition, which she throws. Three years later she's baking cupcakes at her mom's diner. Then all sorts of teenage drama involving the hockey team and various current and ex best friends starts, making me want to scream "just make UP already" and/or "just make OUT already" at the very whiny protagonist. Who sucks at life, seriously. I was very impatient for all the stuff that was obviously going to happen to just happen already, and was relieved when it was over. Good descriptions of cupcakes though. Oh, and the cover of this book has a cookie on it for some reason, which is just silly. B-.
