Your review	The author of The Friday Night Knitting Club returns, this time with a novel about cooking show host Augusta "Gus" Simpson, her family, and friends. Although you can read the first chapter online, I don't think the first chapter does the rest of the book justice - which was exactly what I thought about The Friday Night Knitting Club. The beginning of the novel seemed a bit choppy, perhaps trying too hard to tie in the "comfort food" concept. By the middle of the book, I had been sucked in to the story and was devouring the book voraciously. Although I found the end to be a bit too trite and predictable, I definitely enjoyed reading Comfort Food. Recommended if you're looking for a light and enjoyable summer read, particularly if you have any foodie tendencies.
