Review: 
I saw this title and knew that I had to read this book. I couldn't pass up the chance to read a book called Doughnuts and Doom! Thankfully I was granted an eARC by the publisher and was allowed to read it before its release.

One thing I want to quickly say about this book is that it is, or at least it seems to me, to be a complete book. It doesn't read like the first volume of a series where there's a cliffhanger ending. It could possibly have more written about these characters, but it's not a necessity.

I really loved the art style in this book. I thought it looked really pretty and I loved the use of pink as a way of showing magic. At least it was pink in my advance copy, it could be different in the final version.

These characters were just adorable. I really loved both of them and I adored how they first met and their second meeting. It was just really cute. I also really loved that Margot's familiar, Stanley, isn't what most people typically think of when they think of a witches familiar.

In all honesty, I loved this book. It's not a deep book or anything like that. It doesn't require in-depth analysis. It's a cute story with two girls meeting in an unconventional way and learning from each other. It's cute and loveable and if my library gets in copy when it comes out, I want to read it in its final version.
