Like no cookbook I’ve ever seen. The recipes look and sound delicious and doable, the writing is witty and fun, and—very importantly—there are lots of photos. It just makes me want to start cooking right away! I sometimes dislike cookbooks because they are just lists of recipes, without all the photos and comments that come from a blog. This one is really the best of both worlds. It’s like the blog but all printed and bound in an enticing fashion! I have never read a cookbook cover-to-cover but this one I did. That said, I really hated the crude humor and innuendo that popped up in this book. That is the only factor that would really keep me from giving or recommending it to others. There were also a few minor factual errors (for example, quinoa is NOT “the only naturally occurring plant-based food that contains all nine essential amino acids.” Soy, hemp, spirulina, buckwheat, and amaranth are other plant sources of complete protein. It kind of bothers me that no one bothered to check the facts on that. I think in a previous life I might have been a copy editor. :P) I liked the variety of recipes and I have already made almost twenty of them (though some of these I had previously made from the recipes that were on her blog), and I look forward to making even more. I appreciated that each recipe had the nutrition facts. I don’t count calories, but it is nice to know how much protein, etc. is in a recipe when trying to prepare a complete meal. However, I’m not sure if all the nutrition facts were spot on; some seemed not-quite-right for what was in the recipe. But it is still a good estimate. I also loved the "Pea Points" next to the recipes that gave meal suggestions, ways to substitute, etc. I was surprised that there were quite a few recipes calling for processed food—such as vegan sausages. I guess this is okay, but I appreciated the whole foods recipes the most. I hope Sarah writes more cookbooks, as I really liked this one over all (except for the crude humor. I really hope future books have less of that).

There seems to be a bit of trend going on in YA right now. Here we have The Book of Blood and Shadow that takes place partly in Prague. There's Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor which also takes place in Prague. Most recently on the YA scene is Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo which again takes place in Eastern Europe/Russia. Interesting eh? The Book of Blood and Shadow tells the story of Nora a high school student that is taking part in a Latin translation project at a local college with her friends Chris, Adriane and Max. After long hours together in the library and encouragement from lovebirds Chris and Adriane, Max and Nora start dating. This is an aspect of The Book of Blood and Shadow that I was fairly impressed with. I didn't feel like it was an insta-love situation. Their relationship seemed genuine and realistic. The lives of the foursome are shattered when they are attacked for what they have begun to learn in their Latin translation of an old and mysterious book. Max disappears and a cryptic note to Nora says that he is in Prague and needs help. Adriane and Nora runaway from a school trip to Paris and search Prague for Max. They become embroiled in a centuries old mystery and battle over control of a device said to channel God. I really enjoyed this book. It was full of twists and turns that I wasn't expecting. I read so many mysteries and thrillers that it's pretty hard to surprise me, but there were a few at the end that got me. This book is appropriate for most YA. It might be a little advanced for under 16 just because a lot of it was in other languages and there was a great deal of historical information being thrown at the reader. However, because of that, I think a lot of adults would probably enjoy this book too. I also highly recommend the audiobook. The reader did an excellent job with all the foreign languages and if you're a reader like me, and tries to sound them out, she saved me from that laborious task!
