review 1: Many of these recipes are rather generic, easily found in other cookbooks and online. There are absolutely no pictures, which makes for rather bland reading. Most frustrating? The author repeats recipes between her books, which is just plain lazy. So frustrating...there was easily a good cookbook tie in to be had with the Hunger Games...but this is so not it! The rather lame attempts to tie the overly generic recipes in with the HG trilogy just ended up frustrating me. Over all, as a fan of the HG trilogy AND as a big-time cook, this book is a bust.
review 2: Again, as I did with the author's Unofficial Downton Abbey cookbook, I have to give this a one. No pictures. Did she even make these herself before putting them in the book? Putting in recipes that aren't
... moreeven really recipes, that everyone knows how to do, is she just trying to fill up space to say there are 150 recipes in it? Recipes with meat that you can only really use if you or someone you know is a hunter (and a very good one in order to catch a squirrel), and a lot of grammatical and storyline errors. But again, the thing that I cannot even bear to give two stars for this cookbook, is the fact that she uses the same recipe for beef stew in this book as she does with her Downton Abbey cookbook. I really get the feeling she just wanted money and probably didn't even try out these recipes because she couldn't even come up with a different recipe for beef stew. Seriously? The laziness kills me. less
