review 1: an amazing book. she has a very fluid writting, which makes it very easy to read. english not being by first language, i am always afraid of coming across a book with difficult vocabulary, exotic words and awkward sentences - this book doesn't have any of that.it narratives ressembles stories told by an aunt or family friend when they pop by our house for quick visit.interesting topics, nice tricks and recipes and an amazing life story.highly recommended.
