Review for Hit

Rating: 3 bookmarks
I don’t really know what to say for this book besides I wanted to love it. It wasn’t my favorite but I still liked it. The characters didn’t really connect with me. They seemed too one-dimensional. Also, I was left at the end wanting to know more and wanting to know exactly what happens. Instead, the whole book is within a span of three days and while the focus is on the car crash and the aftermath, you don’t see where that takes the characters at the ending. Again, not my favorite but I still enjoyed it.

Review for The Pizza Bible

This book is awesome! It starts off with a master class and it tells you everything you need and how to make the pizza dough. Then it goes into all of these different kinds of pizza that look absolutely delicious! Whenever I get some free time, I will be making the stuffed pizza. I love the pictures in this book and how everything is explained so well. Definitely earns 5 stars from me! 🙂

I really loved the look of this book and I enjoyed all the different pictures. It made me excited to make homemade pasta! Some of the recipes sounded amazing…my only problem with this book was that some of the ingredients, like the meat or the cheeses, seemed a little bit inaccessible. Other than that, I really enjoyed this book!

Review for Forever Christmas

This is a short, sweet Christmas read that makes you realize you don’t know what you have until it’s gone. This book kept me interested until the end and I absolutely loved it! It reminded me a little bit of a Hallmark movie, maybe because I felt like the ending was a little bit predictable. At the same time, I didn’t feel like that affected the story at all because I still loved it. I highly recommend this book.

I loved this book! It has so many great recipes in it from macarons to different flavors of pastry creams to cupcakes. I also liked that some of the recipes were marked as mother recipes so you could use it to make something else in the book! I will definitely use this book over and over again and it has become one of my favorites!
