Two rival bakeries in the same street: across each other. One only prepares sweet pastries, while the other bakery only provides salty/savory food. So different, yet they have one thing in common, They are both financially struggling.

I am hooked.

Such a fantastic yet different take on the classic Romeo and Juliet. (without the tragic ending)

The book does come across some hard topics like losing family members and the grief that follows.

All in all such an adorable book, the cover is absolutely stunning and the fact that it takes place in a non-western country is absolutely amazing. Although I must confess that all the talking about treats had me craving pastries for days to come.

A fantastic book if you are looking for a Young adult realistic fiction romance book with cute banters and a lot of fantastic tropes like found family, enemies to lovers and forbidden romance.
