Picked this up because it was on the NPR 304 books of '25 list. Now I see it's a 2.79 star book. Very intrigued.

I'm pretty astounded at the sheer number of poor decisions made.

Something about this is just catnip for me. Can't hardly put it down.

I'm assuming this might be a cozy. Because there's tea. And now a baker. You know, these don't all have to have the same elements? I'll keep at it.

Was worried due to the mixed reviews, but 1/7 in and it's pretty good with some humor.

Seen this on a lot of best of lists. I do find it has the very long paragraphs, at least to start, which always slows me down a little. Makes me nervous about challenge totals with the end of the year fast approaching.

Little conflicted about the the jumping around the novels timeline. I want to feel it's justified, but haven't seen it yet.

Mike is on page 23 of 260 of The Chosen and the Beautiful
I don't like the phrase "wondering hungry eye." "Wandering eye" is such an established phrase, I've spent the last few pages wondering if that's an editing glitch.
