I get to post the first review, yay!
If you loved Lizzie McGuire, you’ll love this book. The main character has her two alter ego’s Petty and Betty, who are kinda like the good and bad side of her. This story is about how the 4 girls including Betsey start an online service to get petty revenge on the men on behalf of the ladies. This is really such a fun vibes type of book.
I highly recommend y’all read this

Cute & Fun!!

Spoiler Alert!

I didn’t read the synopsis and chose this book off of the title and look alone. I’m guilty of always judging a book by its cover.
This book was cute and fun!! It was a quick read and very funny. I loved how the protagonist was a baker/business owner. She had beautiful, and supportive besties that all had happy endings. It was funny how they started a revenge service based on how badly men treat women but dated the same jerks that finessed those women. I know reality is, that guys know who they can play with and who to take serious. But, I was looking for more revenge on men hence the title. Lol. I think it would have made the book better. It turned out to be a perfect love story. But, if you want something fast, funny and cute! Read it!

⭐⭐⭐⭐💫

Petty Betty is the first book in the Petty Betty Revenge Service series. This is a standalone and ends in a HEA.

Forget the angel and devil on your shoulder and get you a Petty and Betty! They're waaaaay better! This was a wonderful and hilarious palette cleanser from what I normally read. There's nothing better than a sweet and delicious story, with a side of revenge. I felt there were VEEEERRRY minor details that were not addressed, but that didn't keep me from freaking loving this story. If you're looking for a short, but revenge filled slowburn, I definitely recommend this story!

Can't wait for more of the Cupcake Bandits

Feral screaming

Gahhh, i LOVED this.
I have a deep love for romcom style books with spice. You add in revenge, and I'm a goner. So, no surprise, this will probably be a favorite I've read this year.

The fmc (which is one fmc and her 3 besties) are all full of quirks and fire. They have different styles and body types, and all are hilarious. I absolutely fell for em, much like the men in this book.

The plot is 4.5 🌟
The spice is slowburn but still hot, so 3.5🌶

Overall a fantastic short read. I almost guarantee its in my top of the year. 🖤✨️

Hilarious with the perfect amount of spice!

This was such an amazing short read! I was so invested in this universe, I love Betty with her girlfriends, they make the petty Betty experience come to life! Nathan is drool worthy I mean it! To learn about their family history when finding their one was so romantic and this read makes me want to find a bakery for a dang cupcake now!

The book was funny for sure! Def had me laughing out loud. The problem I had is that the end was rushed. Hardcore. And there wasn’t enough Petty Betty! If you just want a quick and funny book then I highly recommend it. It’s still good despite what I find lacking

This was a super quick read. Not in love with the writing style and the main characters angel and devil talking back and forth to each other from her shoulders. It was fun, and had some cute moments. There’s a little twist of a love story at the end which was a nice change of pace

I won't lie... I picked this book because the cover made me laugh. LOL But it was worth it! I laughed out loud so many times reading this book! It was a quick, fun read with lots of banter! I am interested to read the rest of the series. Also, I want to know what is in that Weild Cocktail!

Väldigt rörig och för mycket gulligull, men antar tillräckligt underhållande.

It’s a quick read, but a great little romance read. Read in a few hours! Was funny and had a little spice!

I wish it was a bit longer but there are more books!

Great little cleanser

1.5 stars. Digital book.
Since this is such a short read by the time I decided to DNF I was already a third through so I powered on. I need to stop doing that. Didn’t like the characters, plot was not about revenge at all, no redeeming qualities for me.

IDK what happened, one minute you are enjoying a cute little cozy story and the next it ends. Very anticlimactic. I wouldn't bother to read any of the others, I have read some cute novellas that wrap up the story this one just felt like too much was missing.

I was in a bit of a slump when I read this book, and it definitely did help me out of it!
I giggled loads at this book. Love the friendship both the 4 girls have, and the 4 guys.
The banter was great, and it definitely left me wanting to read more.
Really funny, good, short read 👌
