Bloom

by Kevin Panetta and Savanna Ganucheau

Though he loved working there as a kid, Ari cannot fathom a life wasting away over rising dough and hot ovens. But while interviewing candidates for his replacement, Ari meets Hector, an easy going guy who loves baking as much as Ari wants to escape it. As they become closer over batches of bread, love is ready to bloom . . . that is, if Ari doesn't ruin everything.

Writer Kevin Panetta and artist Savanna Ganucheau concoct a delicious recipe of intricately illustrated baking scenes and blushing young love, in which the choices we make can have terrible consequences, but the people who love us can help us grow.

An okay graphic novel, lots of fluff and coming-of-age stuff to enjoy. I read it in one sitting and didn't particularly feel any... extreme like or dislike for it, just something along the lines of... meh. A good meh though.

WHAT I LIKED MOST:

The art! Just look at this gorgeous palette:
