    [synopsis] => Teenage baker Syd sends ripples of heartbreak through Austin's queer community when a batch of post-being-dumped brownies turns out to be magical-and makes everyone who eats them break up.
	"What's done is done." Unless, of course, it was done by my brownies. Then it's getting undone."
	Syd (no pronouns, please) has always dealt with big, hard-to-talk-about things by baking. Being dumped is no different, except now Syd is baking at the Proud Muffin, a queer bakery and community space in Austin. And everyone who eats Syd's breakup brownies … breaks up. Even Vin and Alec, who own the Proud Muffin. And their breakup might take the bakery down with it.
	Being dumped is one thing; causing ripples of queer heartbreak through the community is another. But the cute bike delivery person, Harley (he or they, check the pronoun pin, it's probably on the messenger bag), believes Syd about the magic baking. And Harley believes Syd's magical baking can fix things, too-one recipe at a time. 
	"A sprinkling of magic and a whole lot of heart baked in." 
	"Few books made me feel as truly seen as The Heartbreak Bakery…a YA fantasy novel I'll be thinking about for a long time to come." 
	"Capetta's groundbreaking romance makes magic by centering queer and trans characters and relationships." 
	"Syd, who is agender, is an expertly constructed protagonist and…likely to resonate deeply with teens who've shared those thoughts and experiences." 
	"Equal parts romantic comedy, heartfelt explorations of queer identity, and mouthwatering descriptions of baked goods." 
	"Demonstrates the difficulties of having to explain one's orientation and gender and the burden of feeling unheard."
