This book was absolutely insane but so enjoyable. I loved the weaving of the recipes into the story, all of them left me feeling hungry and inspired. I will not lie though, I hated Pedro and feel that the book would have been better if the ending was different.

I think I'm much to black and white to enjoy books of the magic realism genre. This is a good story but just not for me. And I sort of think Pedro was a jerk!
