365 Days of Books of Interest: Day #171: The Candymakers

From reading the description, I'm getting a Willy Wonka vibe from this. Apparently this is not only a  competition book but it also has a mystery. Sounds like it might be a fun read. I love reading food themed mystery books.

Book: The Candymakers (The Candymakers book #1) by Wendy Mass

Description:

In the town of Spring Haven, four children have been selected to compete in the national candymaking contest of a lifetime. Who will make a candy more delicious than the Oozing Crunchorama or the Neon Yellow Lightning Chew?

Logan, the candymaker's son, who can detect the color of chocolate by feel alone?

Miles, the boy allergic to rowboats and the color pink?

Daisy, the cheerful girl who can lift a fifty-pound lump of taffy as if it were a feather?

Philip, the suit-and-tie-wearing boy who's always scribbling in a secret notebook?

This sweet, charming, and cleverly crafted story, told from each contestant's perspective, is filled with mystery, friendship, and juicy revelations.
