A recipe book is an odd thing to give to someone who doesn’t cook, so when Kat Bower is bequeathed a book of secret family recipes by her recently deceased mother, Ella, she is puzzled. Along with the recipes, lovingly handed down from generation to generation, Kat quickly discovers that the book is a conduit into the lives of the remarkable women who contributed to it. Through their stories, she embarks on a journey of discovery about herself and her unexpected heritage, and about persecution, love and understanding. It turns out that the book brings her more than she could have ever imagined.

My life has always been about writing. I write about what I love--the Australian outback, family, fortunes won and lost. I write about people, not characters.

3.0 out of 5 stars Vaguely interesting...
Reviewed in Australia on 11 October 2019

The story line is novel. Would have like longer stories about the relatives and less about the author. The ending was somewhat abrupt considering all the trouble the author was attempting to discover about her own Jewishness.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting concept
Reviewed in the United States on 31 March 2018

This was an interesting concept and I enjoyed going back and forth between Kat's ancestors and Kat's present day life. They had sad but interesting stories to tell her which obviously helped her to grow and evolve. The only thing I didn't care for were the constant references to Kat's love of some rock band, Kinderkill or something like that. It just gave the book a sophomoric air and seemed to be a forced effort to show that Kat is different from the average woman. But I will certainly look for other books by this author

4.0 out of 5 stars So much better

I began this book as a bit of light reading to help me over the golf tournament my husband was going to be watching. It's much more than that.
