Juvenile Fiction. Juvenile Literature. When Tris tries to save his doughnut business and town by competing on a cooking show, will he have what it takes, or lose it all? Tris Levin thought moving from New York City to middle-of-nowhere Petersville meant life would definitely get worse . . . only it actually got better. But just when things are looking up, problems start rolling in. His doughnut business has a major supply issue. And that's not the worst part, Petersville has its own supply problem-it doesn't have enough people. Folks keep moving away and if they can't get people to stay, Petersville may disappear. Petersville needs to become a tourist destination, and his shop could be a big part of it, if Tris can keep up with demand. There's only one solution: The Belshaw Donut Robot. If Tris can win "Can You Cut It," the cutthroat competitive kids' cooking show, he can get the cash to buy the machine. But even with the whole town training and supporting him, Tris isn't sure he can live with what it takes to takes to win. This sequel to The Doughnut Fix is about growing up, family, change, and as always, doughnuts.… (more)

This one is a little narrower in plot and setting but still fun and a good lesson ( )

Loved as much as the first one ( )

Didn't know this was the second book but it can be read as a standalone.

Tris and Josh own The Doughnut Stop. Keeping up with the demand is too hard but Tris finds a solution but it is expensive. Little does he know that his sister is going behind his back and that move may just make it possible for his to get his solution.

I like Tris. He's a little high strung but he does his best. I like that there are lessons shown in the book but it does not beat you over the head with those lessons. Honesty is very important. I like how Tris does it. He teaches his parents the importance of honesty. His sisters add to the story--brainy and cute. The town is important and how the townspeople come together to save it is cool. This is a good read and now I must read the first book. ( )

Reviewed for Netgalley. 2nd in series. Had not read first but did not matter at all. Tris and his mate Josh live in a tiny town called Petersville and run a doughnut shop from 4pm until they sell out, as they cant keep up with the demand for FYO fill your own donuts. ( )
