We love this series! The illustrations are lovely and cute. Bird and bear are such great friends.

4.5 stars. Jack and Annie travel to the prairie and visit a dugout schoolhouse, write with chalk on slate and befriend pioneers. They encounter a twister and have to hide in a storm cellar. This is one of their more exciting and endearing adventures.

I don’t want to yuck anyone’s yum but this was one of the worst books I’ve ever read. It had no meaning. The whole book was just this girl hurting her brother, being mean and being yelled at. There is no resolution and the things the kids do are really dangerous. Still, I bet some people enjoy this book

Detective agency at the back of a cafe replicates recipes from clients’ long ago memories. Too bad this isn’t a “scratch ‘n sniff” book because some of the dishes sound amazing!

Great book! Colleen does a great job at writing another story that you just can’t put down.

This was a good story walk book pick. I liked it. -Diana

This book has a lot of cliffhangers! It’s also very exciting. My favorite character is Percy Jackson, I like that he is the son of Poseidon. If you like Greek Mythology and excitement, you will LOVE this book series!

I like how Harry Potter is kind and stands up for what is right.

Funny. Especially the ghost pepper part!

I devoured this book. In my opinion, it’s an extremely well-written triumph of a ghost story that is perfect for foodies who enjoy magical realism. I heard about this book when it was listed as a June Indie Next pick and its premise piqued my interest. I listened to the audiobook on Libby and would be eager to read more from debut author Daria Lavelle. This captivating and haunting culinary masterpiece was *chef’s kiss!
