I went to the Georgia T. Lord library in Goodyear to pick up a few holds I had there. I also wanted to finally go to see the upstairs! It was cool! I found a Joy Division CD up there that I checked out. I asked for my bookmark prize and found this flyer for the Winter Reading Program and a bookmark too! 😃

Review: Kiss My Cupcake

Kiss My Cupcake by Helena Hunting
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I finished reading this book on Wednesday, November 26, 2025 at 6:45 p.m. I got this book for free at a Free Little Library on Navajo Drive near the Main Library in Glendale. I gave a book to the Free Little Library. It was my free copy of "Hello, Summer" by Mary Kay Andrews. I also got a free art project and a homemade bookmark with this book that was in the Little Free Library.

🧁 Kiss My Cupcake by Helena Hunting

I love how the previous owner of this book put their own personality into it with this heart stamp! It matches the book perfectly!

Awesome! I have never seen this in a book I got from a Little Free Library.

I loved the page stamps too!

I found these homemade bookmarks in the Little Free Library too! =D

Overall, I liked the story. It was fun to read in my free time. It was quite spicy too! I was not expecting that level of spice! Phew! OMG! 😯
