Love from Scratch by Kaitlyn Hill

I loved every second of this the only issue I had was they were teenagers so it's hard to picture forever with 18 year olds. Over all though I loved the baking aspect and the southern roots of the main character and sexism in the workplace

this was so cute!! such a perfect fluffy read. the relationship was super cute, and the atmosphere was perfect! so many of these types of books are slacking on the actual setting but not this one! It seems like Hill is mainly writing reality show type books and now that I know she can write them well I will be back!

I was left with so many questions. I did not like Reese AT ALL. She was so judgemental it annoyed me. Her behaviour towards Benny made me almost DNF it... just like the feminist talk.

I am so sad, there was so much potential for a cozy read.

A huge thank you to the author and publisher for providing an e-ARC via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review!

A strangers to rivals to lovers trope?! Yes, please! Reese and Benny are rival interns at Friends of Flavor, competing for a job to solidify their positions in the company. But what happens when the two rivals start to fall for each other after spending more and more time together while filming their viral videos?

I love this cover, I love this story, and I love the characters. Benny’s nicknames for Reese were cute, but Reese’s nicknames for Benny had me ROLLING.

While there were certain times that Reese made me want to scream and rip out of my hair out of sheer FRUSTRATION, I also realize that she is a 100% relatable character (AKA she is literally me at times), which is probably why I was so invested in this story. Also, I’d love a Clara and Natalie in my life.

Overall, I loved it. Benny has my heart. Time to ask my boyfriend to wear caps backwards now

Will definitely be purchasing this book when it comes out on April 5, 2022!
