Book Review of Julie and Julia : My Year of Cooking Dangerously

Julie and Julia : My Year of Cooking Dangerously
HeatherKCS avatar reviewed Awesome! on
Helpful Score: 1


I really enjoyed reading this book. My interest in the memoir was sparked by seeing coming attractions for the summer movie. Though I never plan to crack open Julia Child's Mastering the Art of French Cooking, I thoroughly enjoyed Julie Powell's blow by blows of her "project." It was funny and real and I felt like I missed out on something for not knowing about her blog when she was in the midst of the cooking project! Living just outside NYC, I appreciated the backdrop of NYC and comments on her experiences involving crisis and living through it.
My review does this book no justice, it really was a wonderful read and I had trouble putting it down! If Julie Powell has written anything else since, I will definitely read it!
