This is such an adorable book!! Thank you to NetGalley and Dreamscape Audio for letting me listen to the audiobook in exchange for a review.
This book has it all! Reality tv! Girls in love! Puns about desserts!
Shireen Malik enters a junior baking show as a contestant. She knows she has a chance, too, because Shireen loves baking! But things get complicated when her ex-girlfriend is also accepted as a contestant on the show. And then there is another contestant, Niamh, who might be a potential crush.
I really enjoyed this book! Priya Ayyar does a right job narrating the book. For me, she really became Shireen's voice.
The book is just so good. I loved the setting around a junior baking show in Ireland. I also loved having a plus-size main character. The author's note about it at the end of the book made it extra sweet!
I can only just highly recommend The Dos and Donuts of Love for anyone who loves reality tv settings, LGBTQIA+ love and sweet, sweet puns about desserts.
