I had seen a blurb about this book somewhere and pinned it on my “want to read it” board. My note on the pinboard, however, was that the book was about someone learning to cook. Which is not at all what it’s about. The book is about a blogger who HAS learned to cook post-divorce and writes about it on her blog, Life from Scratch. The book follows her new success as a blogger and writer, as well as a new relationship, and the ups and downs of learning to be a divorcee in NYC. I was disappointed that the book skimmed over the part of the character’s life I thought I might find interesting, and yet, it was hard to put down. And definitely worth the $1 I paid for it for my Kindle. This book was free for me via some Amazon promo. It wasn't the kind of book I usually read, but I decided to check it out. It was an incredibly slow starter. I spent most of the book wondering when the main plot of the story would start, or when the book would end, unfortunately.I was pleasantly surprised with how the book ended, and I think it ended well. Leaving open some possibilities while not giving away too much. Still, I thought it was simply ok. I wouldn't consider it a waste of time, but I would have been disappointed if I had paid full price for the book.
Do You like book Life From Scratch (2010)?
Quick, fun read. It was kind of obvious how it would turn out. But it was still a fun read.
