Yes, this is a cookbook, but I read it cover to cover. The commentary before each recipe was hilarious. I also can't wait to make many of the recipes in the book.

3.5 - Chrissy is unbearably cute throughout this cookbook. She calls mushrooms "savory dirt growths" at one point and writes in texting slang. I want to live in the fantasy of this cookbook, where Chrissy eats chili out of a frito bag and adds heavy cream to her eggs.

Made a couple of these recipes and while it isn't simple cooking, it is amazing cooking. The directions are also written with Teigen's signature wit

It's been a while since I've seen a cookbook that's as beautiful as 'Cravings.' In fact, even if the recipes were total crap, I'd still enjoy this simply for the fact that it's such a beautiful book just to look at.

I wouldn't just have been attracted to this book because it was written by a celebrity. Usually, that's good enough reasoning for me NOT to check out something. But after hearing such good things about Cravings, I decided to give it a shot - and I'm truly happy that I did. Whether it's the authentic Thai cuisine recipes, or down home mac-n-cheese, there's something in here for everyone.

And perhaps best of all, they're not difficult recipes.

I'm not someone who wants to head into the kitchen to make dinner and spend the next 2 hours slaving over the stove. Thankfully, apparently neither does Chrissy. These are pretty fast, pretty easy, and pretty tasty - a good recipe in MY cookbook.

What did I think?: If you're looking for a great book of really high quality recipes, this one will take that to the next level by adding in some stunning photography. I wasn't expecting too much, but was thrilled to be able to just flip through the pages of this book.

Who should read it?: Not only do I think this is an excellent choice for both the beginner and expert cooks, I think it would be a great gift too! So get it for yourself, get it for someone else, but at least check it out next time you find yourself suddenly wandering through the cooking section of your favorite bookstore. Plus, FOOD!!!

I really can't eat (nor should I) may of these recipes, but Chrissy's comments about her cooking are fun to read.

Definitely going to purchase this one soon.
I love the intros she writes to each recipe. Very entertaining!

I love the Thai food section.

I made the tomato sauce and it is the best I've tried so far!

Some of these are delicious and some require too many ingredients and steps. I enjoy her humorous writing as she gives a bit of background with each recipe. She knows her Thai dishes!

Amazing amazing cookbook! So good that I read each page cover to covrer and conquered a few recipes already! I always loved her tweets when she was cooking or saying anything about food. Her recipes are easy and seriously layered with flavors. Chrissy's love of cooking shines through in this book! Highly recommended for any foodie!

I loved reading all of her anecdotes at the beginning of each delicious recipe. Her true voice shines through and I love that about her!
