I was not prepared for the authenticity of the female voices in this novel written by a male sportscaster. I read it in one sitting.

This was an emotional read for me and made me ponder what women could accomplish if we allowed each other to share our burdens instead of going it alone...

I often gravitate towards books that somehow incorporate food as a character - what could be better than my two favorite pastimes in one - cooking and getting lost in a good read? So naturally the title of this one grabbed me and I was pleasantly surprised. In my opinion, Lillian Dunkle aka Malka Treynovsky, is eerily similar to Miranda Priestly of The Devil Wears Prada only instead of fashion she rules the world of ice cream!
