The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake - Aimee Bender
Admittedly, I was lured into this book by the title. However, after I judged the book by its title, I looked into the premise and it sounded really interesting. Essentially, the main character is able to taste people's emotions through the food that they've prepared. Sounds interesting, right? The problem is that the book didn't really pursue this concept. In fact, it didn't really seem to go anywhere at all. It vaguely followed the main character as she moved from childhood to early adulthood. Despite the lack of focus, it was easy enough to read and entertaining enough. Just don't expect a great plot.
3/5 Stars.
