Cupcake by Rachel Cohn
4.0
This book is the third installment of the Cyd Charisse stories. Cupcake is about a girl named Cyd Charisse who has just connected with her biological father and her half brother and sister. She moves out to New York City from California to start a new life with them and expirience a new beginning. Not wanting to live up to the potential of her movie star name, CC tries to find a balance in her life [without going to college or any other school] between her brothers cupcake business and her addiction to the solution for great coffee. She encounters many people who have either been a positive influence to her or someone who brings her back to her troubling past. Most of all, she tries to live life without the love of her life Shrimp.
I think this book is extremely funny and witty because Cyd Charisse's sarcasm and unknown smartness is relatable and undeniably entertaining. She can be serious, and silly; her cravings for cupcakes,coffee and men can be a rollercoaster ride but her faithfulness in her true love is so sweet; and her connection with her new family prove that second chances can be given in life.
