"Frosting & Friendships"

I've been reading a lot in my book so far and I've learned more about my character and the theme of the book. Lily has gone through a lot of different conflicts so far. Now that she's getting closer to the day of her friend Sophie's surprise birthday party. Lily has been facing even more conflicts through out the book now. She has to help her band write a song and dance for their audition for the "Spring Fling". She has to put her baking skills to the test by baking "the most perfect" dessert for the surpass party. There's just one problem, Lily isn't the best when it comes to baking. She has to put in her all to make this dessert the best any of her friends ever tasted. I think that I can relate to Lily very much. She always has to try to make everything the way she expects it to be in her mind, but then when she tries to accomplish whatever she's trying to achieve, it goes the completely different way. She's so focused on

"Frosting and Friendships"

The book I've started to read is called "Frosting and Friendships" by Lisa Schroeder. It's about a 13 year old girl named Lily.. Lily is in a "baking book club" with some other girls. The problem is, all the other girls in "The Baking Bookworms" are masters at baking any desert. Little do they know, Lily is the last person to be a baker. When it comes down to baking anything, Lily isn't the best at that. Now that Lily is reunited with her old friend Sophie, Lily tries to give her all to baking just so she can impress Sophie. But it all goes wrong, when Lily's struggle to become a baking perfectionist, gets in the way of her girl band, and their friendships. What will Lily choose? The Baking Bookworms, or her group of true friends? I think a lot of people can relate to Lily's situation. Everyone probably had a time when they really wanted to impress someone, and prove to them that they could do the same thing. Maybe it wasn't a friend but someone will always want to prove that they can do something.

Now that I'm getting more ahead in my book, I've gotten to more of Lily's other conflicts that built up over other conflicts. Lily is currently going through a lot of self consciousness when it comes down to her baking. Lily has a week to find the perfect deserts for Sophie's surprise party, and she has to practice her baking skills. On top of that, she has to write a song, along with a matching dance and another song for her bands audition.  Lily has so much on her plate, she's not sure that she'd going to get everything she needs to get done in time. Everything starts going wrong, once she's all on her own without the help of the people around her. It's all up to Lily herself, she might regret some of her choices.

"Frosting & Friendship" Lisa Schroeder

The book that I'm now reading is called "Frosting and Friendship" by Lisa Schroeder. The book is about a girl named Lily. She's part of a girls only baking book club. Lily's good at reading, but she's not the best at baking. She wants to do everything she can to empress the other baking bookworms in her club. She especially wants to win back her old friend from summer camp, Sophie, and wants to empress Sophie's new best friend Isabel. Problems start to happen when Lily is given a task to bake the best dessert for a very special event. Lily runs into other conflicts when it comes down to her girl band. Lily has a limited amount of time to write a a dance to go along with a song for her bands audition.Will Lily have enough time to bake an amazing dessert and have time to make a unique song and dance? I'll just have to find out.

 So far reading this book, I can predict that Lily will go through a lot of conflicts throughout the book. Even at the beginning of the book, there are many different conflicts with Lily's baking skills, and band skills. I can already tell that Lily is going to go through a lot, but will eventually take on her problems head on and defeat them. I've been learning a lot about Lily and how she is as a character. I can relate to her in many different ways. She's sometimes insecure about herself and her abilities, but always has something to keep herself motivated. She's determined to do better then her mistakes and make the best out of nothing. Lily isn't really the most "popular" girl at their school. Her and her friends aren't the perfect match either. One of Lily's bandmates is one of the prettiest girls in Lily's point of view, and her other band mate, is a shy girl who doesn't really like the spotlight. I think that Lily and her friends are the perfect mis matched pair of friends.
