Taste: My Life Through Food by Stanley Tucci

emotional funny informative inspiring lighthearted reflective relaxing medium-paced

4.25

If you are into movies, food, or just a Stanley Tucci enthusiast, I belive this is a must read. We are taken through all the stages if this man's beautiful life, with every stepping stone being marked by a tremendous recipe. How cool ??? This is a great concept. Super inspiring and I would say an impeccable way of thinking about food. The book doesn't dig into the intimate details or his life, he stays invulnerable the whole time, but it just touches on some very real issues, without the gory side of a memoir where we feel like we are intruding.
The Hollywood name dropping is immaculate as well if you're into that sort of thing. 
Overall it's a great inspiring summer read by a man everybody would love to spend the evening with, without being a pretentious book by a non-writer pretending to be what he is not.
