Summary
Remus is a PhD student and hobbyist baker who finds himself adrift following his father’s death. On a whim, he enters the Great British Bake Off and is swept up in a flurry of curdled custard, shrunken souffle, and under-proved dough. Remus expects to be challenged and to embarrass himself on public television. What he doesn’t account for are the friendships he develops with the other contestants and the deep connection he forms with his teenage crush, Sirius Black: charming ex-boy band member and Bake Off presenter.
or,
Sirius groans, dropping his head back into his hands. “It’s the dough,” he mumbles into the skin of his palms. “It’s the kneading. It’s his hands. They’re obscene.”
Lily laughs. “They are a bit, aren’t they?”

Summary
They were looking at each other, the grass tickling their faces.
When Mary stayed quiet, Marlene looked away to her other side, where she picked up a small daisy and twirled it around in her hand. She looked back over at Mary, clearly thinking about something before she moved her hand to Mary’s hair and put the flower behind her ear.
“Here,” she said softly. “A pretty flower for a pretty girl.”
*
When Mary transfers to a new university halfway through the year, she's invited to join a study group for one of her literature classes. This invitation leads her to new friends, a new best friend, and perhaps even love.
Or, Marlene texts Mary first. And then they keep texting. And teasing. And flirting.

Summary
Lily hesitates, takes a deep breath, and looks Marlene steadily in the eye when she says, “Like I don’t particularly like boys.”
I don’t either, Marlene wants to say.
Or,
Do you think we’ll die alone?
But she can’t.
“Who does,” Marlene scoffs instead, reflexive and joking as her heart thunders in her chest, beating against the constraints of her ribs.
or
seven times marlene didn’t say what she meant and the one time she did (falling apart and falling in love throughout her eighth year).
