from Little, Brown and Company
Price: $25.99

Customer Review:
If you are thinking that this book will be as charming as the movie think again! I read about 70 pages and gave up which I normally do not do. Julie Powell disappoints on every page. She manages to drop the "F Bomb" frequently and get a few digs in on the Republicans both of which did not add to the... more info

After working a few years in food service, and watching a bit of No Reservations I picked up this book, and I definitely wasn't dissapointed.

5.Eating: A memoirEating: A memoir
from Knopf
Price: $13.45

Customer Review:
This wonderful book is more than a memoir. In its subtle way, it is a history of the 20th Century through the prism of American food, taking us from Epstein's grandmother's 1930's kitchen in Maine, to Howard Johnson's in the 1940's, to Locke Obers and John Duck in the 50's and 60's, Lutece in the... more info

I haven't read for pleasure for 30 years. The past few years I have picked up cooking as a hobby and my reading has been limited to skimming recipes in cookbooks.

from Polhemus Press
Price: $12.47

Customer Review:
I have to say I liked the format of the book - e-mails and letters with lots of recipes thrown in. This made for a quick read. And the story drew me in .. with suspense building throughout the book. But oh the let down. Maybe I was unfairly expecting some shockingly juicy lurid scandal, but I was... more info

from Doubleday
Price: $12.59

Customer Review:
As many of us do, I well remember my grandparents talking about the Great Depression. Little did I dream that some day I might be having a similar experience, so I recall what they told me and the stories of how they coped. Thus, I feel an affinity for Suzan Colon and what she learned when she went... more info

The author is passionate about wine and very knowledgeable. His opinions sometimes come across as too rigid.. He spends too much time on his moviemaking which is an unwanted diversion.His writing is pretentious;he uses words that I had to look up.
