Bake Off by Cori Cooper
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Cat returns in the next instalment of this series and now she has found out about what her family can do, she now sets off on a family road trip to find out the why and the how, so after the longest car ride in the world and a much needed power nap, they all arrive in the town in Arizona just in time for Thanksgiving, but there is still a week until then for Cat to get some answers to her all important questions.

However, these answers are not going to be as easy to get as Cat had hoped, but there is one good thing about having to work for her answers, she gets to bake! What she doesn’t enjoy is getting up before dawn to do it, though spending time with family, learning about new edible treats and honing her baking skills keep her going, especially when she hears about a bake off as the local bakeries in town have a showdown the day before thanksgiving, however things don’t go smoothly as suspicion abounds and emotions are flying all over the place, which adding in a reckless baking spree, Cat and Robyn discover that when baking and magic combine, it can have consequences nobody would expect.

Will Cat be able to get the answers to the bazillion questions rolling around in her head, or will this bake off become more of a recipe for disaster? This is a fun filled fantasy where magic and confectionary combine to provide some high jinx and low blows keep you hooked throughout, as do the characters and ideas inside.
