#16 of 50 – Like Water for Chocolate

I took a break from Rev. Black.  We all know what he’s up to.  I decided instead, to read this book I’ve been thinking about for a while.  The author has a very different writing style from the books I’ve read recently.  It’s obvious that she really thought about this novel, which is infused with recipes and remedies.  It’s quite an adventure.  I haven’t quite finished it, but I’m sure I will finish reading this love story tonight.  Wonderful book, I’m trying to get the movie.  I’m not sure if I’ve seen it before or not.  I have seen the movie, Simply Irresistible, which is similar, and I think it may have been inspired by this novel.

 

A few brief comments I have about this book:  “Really wild and crazy things happening!”

“Makes you hungry for love and a taste of Mexico.”

“Love it!”

“Fantastic use of language and imagery”

“Creativity at its best”

“How did she (author) ever think of this?”

“Don’t mess with true love!”

“Mama Elena…..*!@%#$@$#$ @$#$#%#%#$# #$#%$^!&&^ *$”

“Go Tita!”
