Love Sugar Magic is a charming and enchanting book series written by Anna Meriano. It follows the adventures of a young girl named Leonora "Leo" Logroño, who comes from a family of talented bakers. Leo dreams of someday becoming a true bruja, a magical baker, just like her ancestors. In the first book of the series, "A Dash of Trouble," Leo discovers that her family has a secret legacy - they are brujas who use their magical abilities to infuse their baked goods with love and emotions. The Logroño bakery is known for its sweet treats that can bring happiness, luck, and even love to those who eat them. However, Leo's family has always kept their magic a secret from her, fearing that she is too young and not ready to handle the responsibility.

When John Collins has it going, it’s great. He’s rolling well and hitting from deep. But then when he’s feeling himself he also starts taking a lot of midrange jumpers and I wish that wasn’t part of it. – 11:12 PM

The Pelicans beat the 76ers 124-114, but the last 6 minutes must be addressed, especially coming off 2 clutch time losses in Utah. Pelicans had a 23-point lead (116-93) and coughed most of it up (the disparity got down to 8 points).
Need to put “finish strongly” in their veins. – 10:35 PM

Jazz lose 105-91 to the Grizzlies. A bad loss for the short handed Jazz against the more-shorthanded Grizzlies.
Jazz shot just 35% from 2-point range tonight, not going to get it done.

The Grizzlies defeat the Jazz 105-91, dropping Utah to 6-12 on the season with a tough one tomorrow night coming up in Minnesota. John Collins had a great first half. Fontecchio made some shots in the third but just not a good one overall from Utah. On to tomorrow night – 10:17 PM

Reviews for "The Delicious Allure of Love Sugar Magic"

1. Sarah - 2/5 - Love sugar magic was a disappointing read for me. I found the plot to be slow and predictable, with no real surprises or twists. The characters felt one-dimensional and lacked depth, making it hard to connect or care about their struggles. Additionally, the writing style felt juvenile and didn't do justice to the potential of the story. Overall, I was left unsatisfied and wouldn't recommend this book to others.

2. Jake - 1/5 - Love sugar magic was a complete letdown. The concept of a magical bakery sounded interesting, but the execution fell flat. The pacing was slow and dragged on, and the constant emphasis on baking and recipes became repetitive and boring. The main character, Leo, was annoying and lacked any real growth or development. The plot had potential, but it was poorly executed, making it hard to stay engaged or interested.

3. Emily - 2/5 - I had high hopes for Love sugar magic, but unfortunately, it didn't live up to my expectations. The writing style was simplistic and lacked nuance, making it feel like it was targeted towards a younger audience. The plot was predictable, with very little suspense or surprises. The magical elements felt underdeveloped and didn't add much to the overall story. Ultimately, I was left underwhelmed by this book and wouldn't recommend it to anyone seeking a captivating and well-written fantasy read.

4. Michael - 2/5 - Love sugar magic was a disappointment for me. The premise seemed promising, but the execution fell short. The writing was lackluster and failed to immerse me in the magical world it was trying to create. The characters felt flat and lacked any real depth, making it hard to care about their struggles or achievements. The plot was predictable and lacked any real tension or excitement. Overall, I was left unimpressed by this book and wouldn't recommend it to others.

5. Olivia - 1/5 - Love sugar magic was a complete waste of time for me. The writing style was juvenile, and the dialogue felt forced and unnatural. The characters were cliché and lacked any real development or complexity. The magical elements felt tacked on and didn't add anything significant to the story. The pacing was slow and failed to hold my interest. Overall, this book was a disappointment and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for a compelling and well-written fantasy novel.
