Book Reviews of How to Eat: The Pleasures and Principles of Good Food

Book Review: A Book to Treasure
Summary: 5 Stars

Someone wrote that if one liked the writing of Laurie Colwin, this book of Nigella Lawson's would also be appealing. Well, that person was right!

While it is impossible to compare these two women, both write lovingly about food and eating. Lawson calls herself an eater, not a chef, and I am sure that Colwin would have described herself the same way.

This book is just so universally appealing. I bought three to give for Christmas gifts.

There is nothing not to like about "How to Eat: The Pleasures and Principles of Good Food" ....great stories, writing, and recipes.

Although I say that I read this book, and have, it is one that I will read over and over, just as I do with Colwin's books.
