Book one-hundred-and-forty-seven: Delicious

Delicious (2006)
Julie Cohen

Rating: 1.5/5

Wow. Someone really needs to slap the heroine and tell her to get over herself and her childhood.

I couldn’t figure out why anyone would fall for her, let alone someone supposedly so great.

And while I’m on the topic of the Supposedly Great One: when you ask someone out when you first meet them and they say ‘no, thanks,’ it is probably acceptable to ask them out again once you’ve known them a couple of months, if they have shown some sign they have reconsidered their opinion of you. But, asking someone out every time you see them is pathetic and borderline psychotic.

Take no for an answer while you still can, Supposedly Great One! She ain’t such a great catch anyway…

But seriously, the writing in this was pretty good. I just didn’t get the characters. Why is it that everyone has to have an issue?

English teacher Elisabeth Read is dedicated to her students, dedicated to books, and hasn’t had fun outside of a classroom for too long to remember.

Then celebrity chef Angus MacAllister walks into her school carrying a chicken.
