WHAT I LIKED: Nothing . WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE: It was ADVERTISED as a combination of a cookbook with stories about Dr. Kay Scarpetta, and in that light, it fails on all counts. There IS no story, and nothing happening in the non-story -- and worse still, none of the characters act like they do in the novels. The recipes are interesting, but basically this book was issued for one reason and one reason only -- to milk some money out of the fans and to give them almost nothing in return. . DISCLOSURE: I received no compensation, not even a free copy, in exchange for this review. I am not personal friends with the author, nor do I follow her on social media. This was a very unique book by Cornwell. I have read many of her novels, but nothing like this before! As cooking is my 2nd hobby (right after reading) I really enjoyed it! It is just a sort of "catching-up" on what is going on with the Scarpetta & friends/family with some very good recipes thrown in! I enjoyed this very much, and while very light reading, it was a refreshing change from the novels I normally read. no reviews | add a review
