My favorite romantic book that I’ve read in a long time. Looking forward to reading a lot more from this author. Her author’s note at the end made me appreciate the entire store even more.

Lovely little book. I had a hard time getting into it at first, but once the quest really began, I fell in love with this romp of a book. This is an excellent, fun, escapist book that will make you feel like a kid again.

Enjoyable food-focused travelogue. It prompted me to finally bump our local Western Chinese and Turkish restaurants to the top of our “to visit” list. Learning more about such foreign cultures’ meals, and their similarities to things I already enjoy, made me much more willing to branch out and try menu items I might not have tried otherwise. The biggest downside of this book: every time I sat down to read, it made me hungry. A good problem.
