This book is considered a Young Adult book, but I think any age will enjoy this book. I found that the attention to detail was amazing. I did not have any trouble visualizing any parts of the book. I felt that I could stand on August Island with the characters in the book. This island is off the coast of Australia. The setting of the book has the premise that they are in a post-apocalyptic Australia The characters are unique as well. Cam in the last year of his science. Then there is Freja who is the love interest of Cam. Then there is Lewis Island. Cam finds Fraser and Laetitia who become friends. Can Cam set up August Island to have a thriving society? Will Cam find Freja? I highly recommend this book as I feel you can enjoy the content and the personal relationships you may gain in the journey.

Bake Believe by Cori Cooper is a fun and entertaining children’s story that I really think will appeal to readers of all ages. The author has created a story that is perfectly written for the age it is intended for but also has a deeper level that makes it perfect for those of other ages too. I thought the whole book was a light-hearted and fun story. It was great to learn about Cat and her family secret and see how that played out throughout the book. Cat was so interesting to read about – she is the perfect example of what it is like to be her age and it was so easy to picture being right there next to her. I also loved the addition of the recipes throughout the book – I thought it was unique and a great way to make the book stand out. I would definitely recommend this book and it is one I thoroughly enjoyed.

What a beautiful surprise this book turned out to be! I expected to enjoy this from the synopsis. But I was completely captivated by this YA tale with fun, teen angst, and some delicious baking. The author did a beautiful job putting this story together in a way that is relatable and enjoyed by readers of all ages. Run and get this one for your preteen and then steal it when they aren’t looking. Everyone will love this!

Bake Believe by Cori Cooper Review by Kaitlyn Stewart 5/5 stars
This book is so cute! I love the recipes! I have written them down to try them! Cat Anderson’s mom doesn’t bake, nor does she cook. So when Cat is put into the culinary class, things start to get interesting. Cat is like my pre-teen sister. The way she talks and the way she acts, Cori did an amazing job making Cat into the perfect pre-teen. This story is not only funny, but it captures the essence of being a young girl.

This young adult book is about a post apocalyptic world. In the beginning of the book, we meet Cam and his sister who live in Australia who are discussing a pandemic affecting Europe. The pandemic is spread through water, so the discussion is about how soon it will affect Australia and the people who live there.
What I really like about this book is that it isn’t your typical dystopian story, it has more depth because the story concentrates on the characters and how they survive. You really dig into their life and understand what life is like. I believe most people would really enjoy reading about this world.

I thoroughly enjoyed this YA romantic comedy with a magical twist. Cat Anderson is a very likeable and realistic teenager who is happy with having a laugh with her friends and flirting with cute boys. Things become complicated for her when a scheduling mistake places Cat in a culinary arts class on her first day of 8th grade. It seems that ‘something’ happens when Cat bakes, something impossible or even magical. Cat’s not the only one in her family that this happens to, as her family have a big secret, one which is to fantastic to be real but can not be hidden any longer. This is a fun and lighthearted read which introduces some great characters, like the relatable Cat but also her friends and family all of whom bring something different to the story. The storyline is quirky and unique but it works and makes this novel a real page turner. I was hooked from page one and felt engaged with the characters and immersed in the story due to the descriptive narrative. An enjoyable and fun read.

Persecuted for the death of her family, nineteen-year-old Roana plans to escape the Isle of Wings, but the sorceress who controls everything on the island stops her. When Roana discovers that the sorceress has an egg of a powerful group of raptors, rescuing it becomes her priority. Despite depending on the help of annoyingly handsome Iniko to protect the egg, she refuses to abandon it, even if that means remaining on the island longer—and bringing down the sorceress’ wrath.
When Iniko meets impetuous Roana, her deep grief and anger compel him to expose a power he has always kept hidden. As he gets entangled in Roana’s trouble, he must rely even more on his ability to safeguard the future he has worked toward, while keeping his power a secret from the sorceress who would use him.
When Roana and Iniko realize the sorceress wants far more than the stolen egg, all who live on the island are endangered. But a long-repressed magic awakens in Roana, and she must choose whether to leave the islanders to the sorceress’s mercy, or save them—and be bound to the island forever.

This was a great story. This was full of fun, magic and great characters.There were times I found myself laughing out loud. The author did a great job capturing the young teenage years. I loved that there are great recipes throughout this story. I plan on trying out some of the recipes. I loved Cat’s character, her baking, her interaction with her friends, her family, and boys. This book kept me entertained the whole time. I cannot wait to read more from this author. I highly recommend this book.

Antipodes by T.S. Simons is a YA dystopian novel that is intriguing from start to finish. It is the kind of book that could appeal to anyone as it is a well written story with interesting characters. Although a dystopian novel it is the type of book that could easily be imagined as happening as it is based on values and concerns that are out in the world today. This is the first book that I have read by this author and I liked the style of writing they have. There is an attention to detail that you don’t always see in YA books which I think made it more accessible and engaging. It made me think more than I expected it would do which just kept my attention more easily. I do think this book would be suitable for a wide range of people and it is one I would certainly recommend.

It a very mystical story. Of a foxain going to earth. Everyone is different now and humans are different to these as well. I was blown away with how Amy had put all these different creatures together in one story. Kobab has super strength, speed and knowledge and is at a complete loss with his planet on a brink. Each teen from a different world. I love learning about these different worlds. Follwing 3 different characters each from different worlds is brilliant and invited idea. The story flows really well. A highly recommended read.

Bake Believe by Cori Cooper is a YA romantic comedy that will have you laughing. It is a quirky little tale that isn’t just a story it also gives us recipes. The plot is interesting and unique and gives us a little baking magic and the usual raging teen angst. The story is humorous and engaging and fun. With the boy of her dreams and a gift she never knew existed her world is about to be turned upside down. Cori has hit the spot with this culinary delight and the YA’s are going to enjoy each and every step of the way on this adventure.

I loved this book so much! I am so glad I found it to read. The characters were just amazing to read about, I really felt like I knew them. The author really did an amazing job with her character development for this story. This is the first book that I have read by this author and I will absolutely be looking to read more from her again in the future. I love baking so I think that really helped me relate to the main character Cat, I really liked and her and enjoyed reading about her. I loved the recipes too! A nice quirky read that I absolutely loved reading! I would definitely recommend this book to other readers!

This was my first book by Cori Cooper. Once I read the synopsis I was hooked. I love reading YA books. There’s just not the same “drama” as an adult book more often than not. If there is, it’s not the same and it’s a wonderful break from life. This book was so adorable. I love our main female character Cat Anderson. She’s your quintessential teenage girl. There are a lot of supporting cast members that make this book for me. Her cousin Robyn is the sweetest. I also read this book out loud with my son’s at bed time. Now we have to bake every recipe in the book! I recommend this book for a great, sweet, magical read.

Bake Believe by Cori Cooper. This story was great I actually read it with my niece and she loved it. She on numerous occasions wanted to read more and more. It’s a fun story that can help anyone get into the reading zone. The characters are well developed and brought the story to life in a great way. My niece and I are both looking forward to more from this author. I love that this book was something that brought my niece and I together in something we both love. It’s well written and paced nicely. I’d definitely give this story a high four star review. I recommend all the way.

I enjoyed this book. This is a science fiction story that is entertaining and the characters keep things engaging. This is a well developed story that is fast paced and kept me turning pages to the end. I enjoyed being pulled into the story from the first chapter. The characters are connectable and some are full of magic. This is a story about three teenagers that need to accept each other no matter the differences and they all have one goal. There is a boy who doesn’t believe in aliens, then you have an alien that only thinks about Earth and there is a girl who is a robot. Together they learn to fight differences and learn respect for all things. This is a really great story to teach that everyone is different in their own way and that differences are good. The characters made the story fun to read and I highly recommend it to all.

I loved reading the book Bake Believe by Cori Cooper. It is a story that is fun to read and had me laughing out loud. I loved the characters especially Cat Anderson. She finds out that her family has a secret. What will happen next? Read this book to find out. There are also many other additional characters that I enjoyed reading about how they interact with Cat. They are helpful to her and are wonderful friends. The situations that Cat and her friends find each other in are at times comical and I found myself not wanting to put the book down until the final page. The author has done an amazing job of making both the storyline and the characters come alive. Don’t miss out on a story that is exciting and entertaining. I highly recommend reading it.

I loved reading the book Antipodes by T.S. Simons. It is a story that has mystery and romance. It is set in a present-day post-Apocalyptic Australia. The book is wonderfully detailed, and I felt like I was right there with the characters. The main character is Cam. He is a character that I grew to care about with each chapter that I read. What does the future hold for Cam? Read this book to find out. I also enjoyed reading about many of the additional characters who interact with Cam. Many are helpful and friends with him. Others are not. The author has don’t a wonderful job in making both the storyline and characters come alive. Don’t miss out on a story that is exciting and entertaining. I didn’t want to put it down once I started it. I highly recommend reading it.

Bake Believe is a pretty cool book which reminded me of this Netflix show “Just Add Magic”. This is a book on similar lines where the main character gets a family gift she never imagined. The gift is that whatever emotion she feels as she bakes is infused in her creation. This adds more fire to her already raging teenage problems and leads to comic consequences. I loved this book, it has a dash of magic, humor and innocent school day romance. To top it all, the detailed recipes are a huge bonus. My son is into baking and the recipes in the book are quite elaborate for him to try out. I absolutely adored this book!

Relic Hunters: Blood of the Dragon is the fourth part in a series that leaves the reader perched on the edge of their seat at every turn. This time, as with many great works of fiction, vampires have entered the fray, and it is up to Adam and his friends to vanquish this foe that is both known and new.
One of my favorite aspects of this book in particular is that it brings the protagonist (and company, in this case) to the precipice, where it seems that there is no turning back, and yet nowhere to run or hide. Will our heroes live to see another day, or have they finally met their match? Read to find out.

Wow. Just wow. I couldn’t turn away as I flew through this emotionally charged book. It was deep, sad, dark, mesmerizing. It was haunting and incredibly real. The author has a real gift. This was an incredible book and one that even with all of the emotion I would recommend.
This was a very emotional read. Going into this I was very naïve about eating disorders and this book definitely opened my eyes. The story and characters felt so real and connecting. This book focuses more on the male point of view and my heart was breaking for Wes as we followed his journey into this awful disorder. We also get a glimpse of how it affects the people closest to Wes. The author wrote an exceptional story and I cannot wait to read more from her. I know this story will stick with me for a long time. I highly recommend this book.
A very powerful emotional roller-coaster read about a very rare topic, eating disorder in men. The story runs in two timelines, present, and past. The past tells a story of a young Wes, who has always lived in the shadow of his older brother, a wrestling champion. He meets a girl Caila, who wants to diet for her ballet dancing. He gets into this dieting habit with her and falls deeper and deeper to extreme diet. As his brother dies, he somehow lets this diet take control over his life. And as time progresses, in the present timeline, he is very sick and refuses to get out of it. It is a very intense book, and communicates a message that one is responsible for their own actions. If one gets into the trouble, it is one’s one responsibility to get out of it. A very unique tale, told beautifully. It is heart wrenching.
Starvation by Molly Fennig is a book that will completely take over your senses and leave you reeling page after page after page. It is dark and emotional and feels so real it is genuinely frightening at times. Why? Because it speaks about subject that is so emotional and yet happens every day without people realising. The author delves into a world that is foreign to a lot of us and yet so true so many more. The fact that it is told from the POV of a teenage boy just creates a bigger impact and a more lasting impression. For me this book stayed with me long after I had finished reading it. I felt so connected to Wes and his journey. This book is so emotional and really pushes you as the readers to think beyond what you would normally see. This was a well written book that was crafted perfectly. I would highly recommend this book to absolutely everyone!
I enjoyed this book. This is a young adult dystopian story that anyone would enjoy. This is a book that doesn’t normally appeal to me but I am happy that I picked it up and gave it a chance. It is written in a way that it is like two books in one. The first one is about Cam who takes on a sustainable community based on an island. It is a place that is protected from the outside and takes on modern values. The second part of this is about Will. He is faced with trying to overcome personal challenges plus a little romance. What will happen when he travels outside of the protected communities? Will he find his love and maybe other communities like he lives in? This book talks alot about environmental situations and what goes into building an eco friendly community. I learned a little bit when reading this book and I am happy I picked it up. I highly recommend this book.

This is the first book I have read by Molly Fennig. This is a great YA book. It deals with a subject matter that is sensitive in nature. It is about eating disorders.It is an emotional read. The characters are well developed and are complicated. This book is a roller coaster ride for emotions. This story is about Wes, a not so popular teen. His brother on the other hand was very popular. This all changes in a minute. Wes is thrown into the spotlight and that is when the eating disorder takes over. Will Wes come to terms with what is happening to him or will he make matters worse? Can Wes step out from his brother’s shadow and start changing other’s idea about him? I highly recommend reading this book as it takes on tough situations. I would not be afraid to recommend this book to a young adult as they may see something that could help them from a situation they are going through.

This is a cute young adult story that I enjoyed from beginning to end. This is my first book by this author and I look forward to reading more from her in the future. This is a fun, entertaining story about Cat and what happens to her when a scheduling mix up places her in a culinary class. Her family has a secret and she is about to find out what it is. I enjoyed Cat’s character, she was fun to read about and watch grow throughout her mix up. I think any age would enjoy this book. I highly recommend reading this book and find out what happens to Cat and her baking.

This was a hard book to read but for the right reason. It covers subjects such as loss and eating disorders. What I really like about it is that the story is from a male perspective which I think is really important in opening up talk about eating disorders in men. Helping to realise it isn’t just an illness women suffer. The loss also hits our character at the same time he is dealing with this as he loses his brother. The pain and grief is hard to read and when the truth of what happens come out it makes things even harder to comprehend.
This book has been written with a great lot of care and respect for both people dealing with eating disorders and people dealing with grief. It will be a great read for someone going through these things to show them that no matter who they are there is always someone there for them.
