I did not read this book, but I love cupcakes! This would be the perfect book for me! Plus, it is a chapter book!
The Cupcake Queen is about a girl named Penny who moves from big-city NY to Hog's Hollow. She has trouble fitting in, thanks to Charity and her group of followers, but soon earns many important friends, including Tally, the unique one, and Marcus, the mysterious guy. Having to deal with her parent's recent divorce and large orders from her mother's cupcake shop, it sometimes feels like everything is falling apart. But Penny grows to love Hog's Hollow. Will she leave, or stay? This is a good book, and fun to read, but I felt that it could have been written better. I DO recommend it though.
This story I can really relate to because Penny had to move from the big apple to hogs hollow, a small town. I moved from New Jersey to North Carolina.
Me too I moved from a big city to a small town
I chose to read this book because I love to bake and cook and I wondered what the book was about. It wasn't what I thought it was going to be, but I LOVE it!!! I hope you enjoy it too!

I love this book! It is full of drama and is very exciting. I would recommend it to all girls. Please read this book it is very good!
This book was good. It talked a lot about boyfriend-girlfriend kind of stuff, which is fine, but not particularly something I really love in a book. At the beginning, I wasn't so sure about this book, but it was a good book all in all.
I loved this book it was very well written and had lots of drama in it. I really recommend this book to anybody of any age. Please read this book it is really good! P.S. I love cupcakes!
