Hosted by three passionate cooks, readers and foodies; Rachel from The Crispy Cook, Johanna from Food Junkie Not Junk Food and yours truly, Cook The Books has a brand new blog page designed by the talented Johanna. Here you will able to get all the details of the bi-monthly book being read, share your thoughts, join in on discussions, ask questions and in general explore the books we will be reading. Rachel has even been in contact with the author of our first selection, Lily Prior, to tell her about the club and she has offered to stop by the blog and answer our questions.
There is still plenty of time to get the book and start reading as you have until December 15th to consume this delicious tale, cook something inspired by it and then blog about it. A round up will be posted, a winning dish chosen and a soon to be coveted Cook The Books Winner Badge will be given to the winner for their Blog.
Stop by the new Cook The Books site, check it out and leave a comment, question or suggestion for upcoming reading selections. If you haven't already, start reading and dreaming of pasta, bread and delicious Italian recipes.
Buon appetito! (and Happy Aloha Friday too!)
Ooh! So exciting! I already dream of pasta and bread. The book was very sexy and a lot of fun. I finished it in a couple of days. I have a sudden urge to knead bread.....
ReplyDeleteThe book club is an excellent idea, I am so happy that you gals are hosting it.
All right, if I can find this book at my library or if I can drag myself to the bookstore I'll get it and join. I'm leaving for a few weeks and there is always time to read on vacation. YOu know it's killing me not to have joined. I'm worried about anything taking more time, but I know I'd love it.
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a completely wonderful idea. I am so very interested -- I am going to check out the club website!
ReplyDeleteBTW, I've tagged you for an award. You can pick it up towards the end of my (inexcusably long) Cooking Light Night post. I love your blog!
What fun! I got my book this week and will begin it today. I can't wait to visit the new site.
ReplyDeleteDeb, This sounds really interesting and I'd like to participate. I went to the site but no one has left any comments yet and I'm not sure what questions to ask. I'd like to help spread the word and blog about this at Cookbook Cuisine. Could you email me more info? Thanks.
