This is a sequel to Bread Alone so it helps to have read the first book. There are quirky small town characters and strong women. Overall I liked the book but it's not something I would read again. It's not as good as Isabel's Daughter which is my favorite Judith Hendricks' story. Baker's Apprentice dragged in the middle. I skipped several pages just to get past the boring section. The middle portion about Mac was definitely lacking something. It felt unfinished which is a shame because I think there was a lot of potential to have gone somewhere with it. On the plus side, there are some great mouthwatering recipes here. Might be worth getting the book just for those recipes.
