I was recommended this book by a friend as I happen to be somewhat of a foodie - food and I are great friends and I enjoy eating it, making it and reading about it. This leads me to what I first liked about this novel - the abundance of food. However, for some strange reason, by the end, the description of the meals began to become monotonous and over exaggerated, not every single meal you eat is orgasmic or absolute divine perfection. The characters, whilst originally interesting, became actual 'characters' rather than anything resembling a real person, especially Lillian. Every sentence that came out of her mouth had me cringing with its corniness and hyperbole, she was over the top. It seemed the other characters then began to become her clones, each going goo goo over whatever they happened to put in their mouth that day to the point it was embarrassing. The book severely lacked subtlety - it was overly verbose and cheesy. The 'romance' in this novel felt forced and almost romance-lit-like, nothing felt real about it. I'm all for wonderful experiences with food, but having a dish suddenly solve everything in your life and making everything rainbows and unicorns was too much. On the plus side, it was very easy to read. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
