This is a lovely, lovely book. There was real "magic" with the food and with each member of the cooking class. Enchanting.

It was a 5-star til about 2/3 through. I got tired of the similes and the individual stories that, though they had a purpose, didn't lead anywhere. Still, I loved most of it, and saved it for the moments I could take the time to savor it.

Cooking and life both teach lessons. But the scrumptious cooking and descriptions in this book make it a quick, joyful book to read. I will never look at cooking in the same way again. Cooking takes love, time and enjoyment.

This is such a luxurious book. It merges imagery with emotion, and showcases the lives of several individuals all joining together for for a cooking class while letting us get to know each one through snippets of back story. Charming read.

an enjoyable (if slightly cheesy) quick read with great descriptions of food and cooking...

The writing was uninteresting and I lost interest in the characters. A lot of sad people. Not my thing. Maybe I just need something a little more upbeat right now.
