Garlic and Sapphires by Ruth Reichl

Garlic and Sapphires


Ruth Reichl's Garlic and Sapphires is an exquisite novel. Not only does Ms. Reichl have fantastic descriptions of food but she combines them with the humor surrounding her various disguises she wears to restaurants. Ruth Reichl makes you want to be her best friend. She is rebellious, yet kind and best of all her food sounds absolutely amazing. My favorite passage was about a raspberry foie gras which made me feel like I was tasting it with her.  This book is fun and great for anyone who loves to eat and cook.

Overall, Garlic and Sapphires is an amazing read. It has dimension and humor which both work together to accentuate the passages about food.
