Killing Me Souffle

book cover


This is an enjoyable mystery set in Oregon whose main character is a pastry chef. There are tips on baking and recipes included in the book which is part of a baking series. The characters are interesting and they pitch in to help out friends who have new jobs as chefs at a resort. There are beautiful descriptions of the shore and delightful Shakespearian quotes since Ashland is the home of a Shakespearian festival. This is the latest in a fun series.

book cover


I come from a long line of people who had bad experiences with math class. Ask my dad about his college math class where everyone was dropping left and right so he passed because he was one of the few left. I decided to do the NY Times reading challenge which has a “pick a genre you normally don’t read”. Enter Math Cats. I am telling you, if my geometry teacher Mrs. Scott had used cat analogies I would have been all in! This book was very entertaining

I have read several Eggers books and they never fail to be beautifully written Even his children’s books are special. Beyond the love story spanning 60 years, this is a book about what is art. I loved it! Highly recommend.

This book was so easy to get right into and so easy to relate to if you are the middle of the sandwich- having older parents and young adult children.
