Resumen del Editor

Now an Amazon streaming series

Take three friends. Add an old cookbook. Combine with cute boys and a pinch of magic...and see what kind of chaos ensues!

When Kelly Quinn and her two BFFs discover a dusty old cookbook while cleaning out the attic, the girls decide to try a few of the mysterious and supposedly magical recipes that are inside. To their surprise, the Keep 'Em Quiet Cobbler actually silences Kelly's pesky little brother and the Hexberry Tart puts a curse on mean girl Charlotte.

Is it possible that the recipes really are magic? Who wrote them and where did they come from? And most importantly of all, when boys get involved, what kind of trouble are the girls stirring up for themselves?

Interesting moral implications for young children listening

Cute story about three girls! I started listening to it because I enjoyed the show (by the same name) on Amazon and the book was okay but the show was better (for like the first time ever!!!!) The main character does not make the wisest choices and holds grudges and try’s to get paid back on people she doesn’t like as well as being constantly annoyed by her family so I would have a hard time recommending it to younger children because of all of that. Note: the show has much better role models and has a much better storyline.

A fun story with a pinch of magic

Kelly finds an old cookbook that may or may not have some magical recipes and recruits her two BFFs to try out some of the recipes in it to see if they actually work. How do they find out? By trying a few out, of course. After one recipe does manage to cause Kelly's loudmouth younger brother to go silent and another seems to cause a rival student to get blisters on her feet. But is it really the recipes? And if so, what kind of problems can they solve with these recipes? What kind of problems will they cause? And what will happen when boys become involved?

This was a really cute book and a great debut middle grades novel. One of the things that I like about the story is that whether or not the recipes actually work is a mystery. Are the effects coincidence or actual hexes? The question keeps coming up throughout the book, and I liked that.

I also really liked the friendship that Darbie, Kelly, and Hannah have. As the story progresses, they experience some growing pains in their relationship, which adds an extra element to the story. I also liked the character of Charlotte. As annoying as she was, she served as a great foil for the trio of friends.

Listening to the audiobook, which was narrated by Jesse Vilinsky, was also a lot of fun. Though there were a few times when I thought the narrator went a little over the top with the ... expressiveness ... of the dialogue, I enjoyed it very much.

After reading this book, I look forward to reading more novels by Callaghan. And, having learned that this book inspired a television show from some of the other reviews, I think I'll have to check out the show as well.
