2 stars. The premise for this book was interesting; it just didn't execute it in a way that it kept my attention. The romance was unbelievable. The magic system made absolutely no sense (you'd have Rachel making the pies and yet they still somehow used Catch's magic, how did that make sense?) We never really got a sense of how the wishes worked and why Rachel wasn't bombarded with all of the wishes ever (because we're only told that she doesn't have to be present for them to come around toward her so clearly there should have been billions (literally billions) more).

The only thing that kept me reading was Michael and the author made it super obvious who it was at the mere mention of a standard feature very early on. I then had to wait over 200 pages for it to even be brought up again. This novel's focus was just off. I would have rather had the scene where Michael learns who he is, rather than the copout and have the story build up from there. For once, I would have gladly went without the romance.

Also, way too much eating of pies. They should have keeled over dead years ago from the sugar intake.
