I really enjoyed this book and have enjoyed it over the years. The recipes (especially the Tuscan bean soup) are ones I use over and over. This is the best of her books and the other ones just go downhill from here.
I LOVE this book and, surprisingly, I love the movie too! Wise cracks and priceless advice, this book (or movie if that's your thing) is well worth your time!
Do yourself a favour - instead of reading this book, go to Tuscany yourself. The people of Tuscany are friendly, the architecture and the views are stunning and the food and the vino are outstanding.
A book I dip into whenever I feel like satisfying my wanderlust and made me fall in love with Italy. I whisper the Italian words under my breath, hoping it's a spell that would take me far far away.
