Bookstore owner Aubrey Barnes likes his quiet, orderly London life, thank you very much. His shop may be struggling, his only employee is a menace, and his plumbing is one creaky pipe away from disaster, but he can handle it. Maybe. He cannot, however, handle the film company that's thrown his Soho street into chaos. And he definitely can't handle the charismatic American actor Blake Sinclair.

If only he didn’t have to deal with Clay Parker, the infuriatingly smug data analyst who gets under Thom’s skin like it’s his job. In the midst of one of their heated and very public arguments, a journalist snaps a photo, but the image makes it look like they’re kissing. As if that weren’t already worst-nightmare territory, the photo goes viral—and in a bid to secure the liberal vote, the governor asks them to lean into it. Hard.

Publisher's summary
From the bestselling author of Boyfriend Material comes a sweet and scrumptious romantic comedy about facing your insecurities, finding love, and baking it off, no matter what people say.
Paris Daillencourt is a recipe for disaster. Despite his passion for baking, his cat, and his classics degree, constant self-doubt and second-guessing have left him a curdled, directionless mess. So when his roommate enters him in Bake Expectations, the nation’s favourite baking show, Paris is sure he’ll be the first one sent home.
But not only does he win week one’s challenge—he meets fellow contestant Tariq Hassan. Sure, he’s the competition, but he’s also cute and kind, with more confidence than Paris could ever hope to have. Still, neither his growing romance with Tariq nor his own impressive bakes can keep Paris’s fear of failure from spoiling his happiness. And when the show’s vicious fanbase confirms his worst anxieties, Paris’s confidence is torn apart quicker than tear-and-share bread.
But if Paris can find the strength to face his past, his future, and the chorus of hecklers that live in his brain, he’ll realize it’s the sweet things in life that he really deserves.

Fatima, Farah, Bubblee and Mae, the four sisters of the Amir family, are sometimes tired of being the only Muslim young women in a rural British village, not helped by their eccentric neighbours, including the hippie nudists next door. Oldest sister Fatima - or, as her family have always nicknamed her, Fatti (which, she worryingly suspects, has just as much to do with her inability to lose weight and guilty-pleasure love of Primula squeezy cheese as it does her birth name) - is having a particularly hard time finding her place in the world.

There are plenty of words Jonah Collins could use to describe Dylan Ramírez. “Arrogant,” “spoiled,” and “golden boy” to name a few. Likewise, Dylan thinks he has Jonah accurately labeled as an attention-seeking asshat who never shuts his filthy mouth. Their friends are convinced Jonah’s and Dylan’s disdain for one another is just thinly veiled lust—a rumor that surges like wildfire when the two wake up in one bed after homecoming. Mutually horrified, Dylan and Jonah agree to use the faux pas to their advantage by fake dating.

Fun
Paris Daillencourt is About to Crumble is a delightful romp for anyone who enjoys a lighthearted fiction novel, with a light intermingling of romance and the desire to see the Great British Bake Off brought to life in the pages of a book. Alexis Hall's writing is very good, the plot line is fun and interesting, and this novel will work for you on all levels if you love novels along the lines of Sophie Kinsela. I enjoy Alexis Hall as an author and truly enjoy explore his works. If you are looking for a true romance, this is not it, this is definitely more long the lines of a "women's fiction" novel (even though I hate using the term Women's Fiction, it is just a fiction novel). It truly focus' on Paris' journey through the story and the romantic elements are very light throughout the novel. But if you love Alexis Hall's writing and works in general I think you will definitely walk away from this novel with a smile on your face.

Couldn't get through it.
While I loved the first book in this series and could not wait for this one to come out, I couldn't even finish it.
The main character is exhaustively self depreciating. He's not cute or charming in his simpering meekness, he's just annoying.

TW: Anxiety
If you suffer with anxiety, you may find this book, extremely triggering. It hit me right in the soul. Alexis Hall, as usual, is simply brilliant. 😭💔💜

Great
this might be my new comfort book, while I don't have it as bad as Paris, it is nice to understand that some of the clumsy brain acrobatics I put myself through isn't a singular experience

Another great story by Alexis Hall
Paris really is a hot mess, and I totally understand why that’s offputting to some people, but in order to have a meaningful journey to the place where he shows real growth we do have to see the reality of what he’s like. I really appreciated how much time and detail went into the resolution phase of this novel. Totally rooting for this adorable couple. Also, even in the hard/dark/annoying times, there’s still the signature Alexis Hall laugh out loud touches. And the narrator for this one is great, too. Great work all around!

Intense themes but still cozy
Other reviews are not wrong, it can be hard to inhabit Paris’ brain and while it took me some time to get into the book, I did ultimately still enjoy this and found myself rooting for him and Tarik at the end.

A beautiful story of mental health recovery (with laughs, cakes and romance ❤️)
I loved this book. It reminded me of Glitterland in its representation of a 3-dimensional MC's mental illness, loneliness, doubts, self-loathing and road to recovery through love and human connections. I can see why other reviewers got annoyed with Paris (just like the fictional Twitter trolls in the story). He does worry, complain and cry A LOT in the first half of the book. But I've frankly never seen such accurate, nuanced, loving representation of anxiety disorder and coming to terms with getting help when your brain is literally plotting against you. This is what happens in our brains. It's exhausting. And therapy is so freaking hard. Except, unlike Paris we hide it a little bit better in the real world (which is equally exhausting). Like in the first book we get a lively cast of bakers, family and friends - and a reunion with the zany hosts/judges/producer. But the core of the book really is Paris's sensitive heart, his journey to recovery and his truly lovely friendship/relationship/romance with Tariq. The narration was, as usual, absolutely perfect.

Cute
Cute story. I had to speed up the narration because it was so slow sometimes.
