Really liked the plot, setting, and characters, but just a few things really spoiled the book for me. First, some of the actions of the characters were just off-putting. I know the dog thing was meant to be cute, but I truly don't understand how I'm supposed to support a character who literally stole a dog from someone? And hid the dog when she realized that it had an owner? That's just weird. I also really didn't vibe with Jake.

And the story never actually explains why he up and left Sadie? There was no reason for that...

And then...Ta-Da! It's another story where

the main female character has to give up her powers.

I hate that trope so much, it took off a full star. Otherwise, I really enjoyed the story and the writing. The recipes between the chapters were really cute and I'd like to try one sometime.
