I think this is one of the only moments that I’ll say that the film is better than the book. It was a good read, with some chapters I found myself flying through the pages with wonder and interest, but I couldn’t help but end up bored with some passages and even chapters, especially the first chapter. It’s definitely a book everyone should read in their lifetime, but I can’t help but feel like I was forcing myself to read it sometimes.

This is a great beginner-friendly baking book, especially ideal for younger bakers or those just starting out! It starts with a helpful ingredients guide that explains things like which type of butter works best for different techniques, and the different kinds of food colouring and what they’re best used for. There's even a handy conversion table at the back to help with Imperial, Metric, and cup measurements, which makes it accessible for bakers from anywhere.
The recipes are easy to follow, with most including 'top tips' on the page and a photo to go along with trickier steps or designs. Best of all, every recipe we’ve tried so far has turned out delicious!

I am not normally a romance reader, but decided to give this book a chance purely based on my love of dragons as a concept. I kept seeing this book everywhere, so I ended up buying it. It felt like quite a cosy read, quite predictable but I liked the idea of essentially a cat cafe, but dragons. However, it felt very repetitive, both in the story line but in the fact that the same words and phrases were repeated throughout. It sometimes felt as though I were reading the same sections over and over again! The writing style does leave a lot to be desired and is quite poor, and doesn't actually seem to have been proofread. I love the ideas that the story introduces, but it could have been written so, so much better!
Despite this, I am looking forward to the two upcoming books teased at the end of the story - The Baby Dragon Bakery and The Baby Dragon Bookshop. I'll keep my fingers crossed for them.
