This was such a adorable graphic novel with a just as adorable romance! I love how baking was weaved into the story and both of the characters had a love for baking. One rediscovered his love for baking while the other shared his love for baking with people who appreciated it. I also liked how it explored the themes of some friendship can be toxic, along with relationships and how everyone is trying to find their place in the world no matter where it may be. The romance was really cute, how it went from strangers to friends to lovers! I recommend this novel for a really cute and quick read if you are in the mood for some adorable romance.
