from Houghton Mifflin Co
Price: $9.38
Customer Review:
I really enjoyed the ideas in this book. Many of them were simple enough that I, a non-baker, could use them. I did visit their website and made the 'acorn nut' cupcakes also. They were the most popular. My mom made the acorn cupcakes for her garden club meeting and they were the talk of the... more info | 5.0 / 5.0

Customer Review:
I know I would have enjoyed this book(s) if I had ever gotten them. 1 look books never sent me anything: not my books, not an answer to my e-mails(plural), but of course they billed my credit card the day I sent the order. That was 24 Nov. and it is now Dec.27, 2008. My review: I truely liked the... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

Customer Review:
I own a ton of cookbooks. However, this is the first one that I've owned where I actually want to make everything in the book. We made our first two recipes tonight (Baked Shrimp with Tomatoes and Feta and Chickpea and Spinach Salad with Cumin Dressing). The taste was phenomenal and was both healthy... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

Price: $12.21
Customer Review:
I was super excited to get this book after hearing all of the media surrounding Hungry Girl and how weight-watcher friendly she is.

Customer Review:
I was on board with this book (in audio form) initially, then they got into meat, and were really zealots about it! I have nothing against Vegan folks, to each their own, but this book was disguised as a funny get real book about weight loss, that turned into some kind of podium for why we must all... more info | 3.0 / 5.0

Great gift. Got this for Christmas and I love it. I always wanted to know what a particular ingredient did and this book answers those questions. I've baked for years but didn't fully understand some of the "why's" certain things were done. | 4.0 / 5.0

from Thorndike Press
Price: $29.53
Customer Review:
Although I appreciated the detailed research, thorough explanations, and carefully broken-down science of this book, I did NOT appreciate the "cutesy" humor that barely masked itself as grade-school-style fat jokes. Size discrimination is never funny, and neither are jokes made at the expense of... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

When it comes to Giada di Laurentiis all I can think is the most delicious
