Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This book reads like those food recipe blogs that we all hate. Where the author rambles for 500 words before getting the only part anyone will ever care about, the recipe. There are pages and pages of the Krishna family antics, as the book says so on the cover so I can't knock it too hard for that. However, the substance of the book in many places is lacking and poorly formatted. There are recipes, such as "Garlicky Tomatoes", that are literally 1 step recipes telling you to mix tomatoes and garlic. Yes of course, that's how you make garlicky tomatoes, thank you for enlightening me. The real problem here is that this recipe takes up an entire page! Why?! It's literally a 1 sentence, 1 step recipe. Either omit it from the book or format so other recipes can take up the blank space. This is not the only example of unnecessary recipes and wasted space. Overall, the book is beautiful and charming with several good recipes. There's just a lot of fluff to make this thing 240 pages when it could have been 100.
