2024 Book Bingo with Amplify Bookstore - hosted by amplifybookstore

A book that made you hungry.
We love an evocative book — this one's for anything that explores food, describes things with foodie terms, or just, y'know, one way or another, makes you feel hungry.

Some books that have done that for me are Butter by Asako Yuzuki, The Stationery Shop of Tehran by Marjan Kamali, and The Kamogawa Food Detectives by Hisashi Kashiwai.
