This is a book I have been dying to get my hands on. I love historical fiction and food literature, and I love the fact that this book melds both. I am glad to hear it was as good as I had been expecting. Great review!

This one sounds like a winner to me as well. Drool worthy food and historical fiction makes Marg a very happy girl.

This book does sound totally yum-worthy. Like a HF version of Ratatouille. But, um, without rats. Or a foodie version of Perfume. Plus I love books set in Venice. So I guess this is another book I’ll have to get. Gargh! *shakes fist*

Oh, I gave you an award, btw: http://heidenkind.blogspot.com/2009/08/awards-spreading-love.html

Boy, this makes me really interested to read this book – so many aspects I would enjoy.

Sometimes I feel like the only reader in the world who does not like food stuffs in my fiction or movies. Nothing gets me skipping paragraphs faster than describing the preparation or eating of food. I do love food myself, don’t get me wrong. I just don’t enjoy reading about it. It’s good to know in advance about those kinds of things, though. I don’t think this is the book for me. It does sound delightful for those who like that – which, like I said, must be everyone else.

I read this one a couple months ago and mostly enjoyed it too! I think the same think annoyed me, but the mystery and writing (and beautiful food descriptions!) kept me reading!

I’m touring this later this month, so I’m glad to see it’s enjoyable.

I read this book awhile ago and remember really enjoying it. I love how the author appealed to the reader’s senses — from the cover of the book, to the descriptions of Venice and food!

Wow! HF, foodie, mystery???? I had this on my wish list and you’ve made me nudge it up closer to the top. I need to get some tour books read first tho.
