Hi! I hope you enjoy this book review on The Truth Cookies!
Author- Fiona Dunbar
Genre- Fiction, Mystery
Theme- Be who you are I will explain why later in the post
Target audience- 10+ I will know explain why later in the post
I chose the main theme as be who you are because in The Truth Cookie Lulu Baker stays true to herself despite her dad wanting to marry someone cruel (Varaminta Le Bone).
This book is about Lulu trying to stop Varaminta Le Bone marrying her dad. Her mother died when she was just starting school. To make matters worse Torquil and Varaminta move in to their house and Varaminta wants her dad to be skinnier so she puts him on a boiled eggs diet. Then when her dad goes on a long New York city trip Varaminta puts in a closet going into Lulu's room. Then later Lulu gets the Apple Star book. It has recipes that are magic. They can make you silent, say the truth or even make you hear what the other person is thinking. Lulu got this amazing book from Cassandra. She thinks she got it from her mum. Then, more trouble. Varaminta fires Aileen (their cook/ maid) and replaces her with Grodmila. Grodmila is somewhat evil, too.
I give this book 3 out of 5 ⛦ stars because sometimes it got confusing as too much was happening. Then, other times nothing was happening. Otherwise it was great!
The question of the blog is would you want a model as a mum? I personally think I wouldn't because then, your mum would probably want to make you skinny and look beautiful like her. We are all beautiful in our own way!
The other books in this series are, Cupid Cupcakes and Chocolate Wishes. If you want tell me in the comments and I can review them if wanted.
