A really solid book, very impressive for a debut. The concept was brilliant and I loved all of the descriptions of the food and cooking. Kostya was a great main character, but I never really quite bought the relationship between him and Maura maybe because it felt like it didn’t have much build up and there wasn’t enough focus on how their relationship was beyond the physical. It just felt a bit teenage-crush to me.
