loririder71 's review for:

Recipe for a Charmed Life by Rachel Linden
3.5
emotional hopeful reflective medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No

The main characters had a good story line and chemistry, but I felt like the writing was a little clunky and the emotional scenes between family members were sometimes a bit forced. Lots of food references. I did like the sense of place for the Pacific Northwest, which I just visited a couple weeks ago.
