One of my other loves, besides food, is reading. But what happens when you combine books with food? Pure reading enjoyment!!
I recently read a fun book called Eat Cake by Jeanne Ray, and it has set me off in search of other books where food plays a central role. In my search of new books, I have learned that food related fiction is easy to find. My list of books to read has grown, and I can’t wait to read them all!
Have you read any foodie fiction books?
It’s not fiction, but have you read Ruth Reichl’s books? They are so beautifully written!
I just finished “Dark Torte” by Diane Mott Davidson. I really enjoyed it and am ready to start her book “Sweet Revenge” tonight.
I love the Diane Mott Davidson books. I also like JoAnna Carl. The series stars with The Chocolate Cat Caper. A must read for chocoholics!
I have read the Hannah Swensen Mystery series by Joanne Fluke. It is a fun quick read with recipes included.
I also just finished Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly by Anthony Bourdain. Its a bit vulgur, but interesting.
I read “In Defense of Food” by by Michael Pollan recently. It’s non-fiction but that counts right?
Sadly haven’t had the time to read it yet, but Cake Walk by Kate Moses has received great reviews, its a memoir though!
i highly recommend A Home Life by Molly Wizenberg…so good!
