The Girl Who Chased The Moon

Another one of Sarah Addison Allen's books.  They are like candy and I can't get enough.  She also wrote Garden Spells and The Sugar Queen.

This is by far my favorite of her books.  All of them have been fun to read and all have been read in one sitting.  I love the magical elements, the food, and the mystery.

After her mother dies, Emily moves to a small North Carolina barbeque town to live with her grandfather whom she has never met.  She soon learns that her mother left after something horrible happened and now Emily has to live down her mother's reputation.

There is a little bit of romance.  A lot of cake baking (recipes included at the end of the book).  Mysterious lights and wallpaper that changes on a whim.

I would recommend this book when you are in need of something light and fun.
