Each month, I'll share the magic of a good read and, with the author, find a recipe to pair with it! We highlight many independently published authors, expanding your bookcase!
Cooking and food in books take us into the mind of the characters and brings us into the book's kitchen to see, smell and share the lives within.
​
Here's to cooking and reading together!
Jennifer Alderson's The Lover's Portrait
Jennifer Alderson has created a fast paced and suspenseful historical novel about art theft In the Netherlands during the Nazi occupation. Two time lines connect the plot.
Jennifer has pulled together all of this data into an exciting and suspenseful historical novel. Zelda Richardson, our modern sleuth, is impulsive, courageous, feisty and smart as Sherlock Holmes in sniffing out clues. I immediately liked her!
An archivist helping Zelda tells her grimly, “This was truly a dire period for the Netherlands, and all of Europe really. I could tell you so many heartbreaking stories…”
​
Jennifer tells us one that is worth reading.
