yum

Would it be too easy/awful of a pun to say that I devoured this book? It is, but I did - or at least most of it. With a title like Delicious and a prefatory quote from M. F. K. Fisher about hunger and love, I should have realized what the book would be like. But even if I had anticipated food...

Deliciously Romantic

Delicious by Sherry Thomas is just as the title says. Actually it was mouthwatering delicious and I will never look at a Madeline again in the same way. Whew......who knew food could be so erotic.Verity Durant has a reputation of not only having the love life of the century but she is the most re...

More meat, structure and depth than generally appreciated

I think that Delicious is mis-marketed as a genre romance, because it has a heavier "reader load" than this particular reading demographic typically is required to put in. And we all know that in general this is a voracious reader niche; we consume these concoctions like addicts. It is often a...

A little hard to get into, had a lot of potential to be better, but still a good read

Starts off slow I didn't get into it until halfway into the book. Overall it was an ok read, but it was too much like that crappy Sarah Michelle Gellar movie "Irrestible". It had a good story line, great characters, but I think think that it had a lot of potential to way better and ends up...

Not quite a feast

Difficult book to follow, I suspect I might like it better on second reading, but on first reading it really didn't work - and yet, I finished it, didn't I... Set in 1892, so Victorian rather than Regency, it tells the tale of Verity, a woman who 3 times loved when she shouldn't. At 16 she loved...

It's not the best and not the worst I've ever read...

This book was OK.... Here's my take on it:PRO'S: * I'd like Verity to cook for me please. :) All of the items she cooked sounded like they would be devine!* I read the book in a few days time.* Liked it enough to purchase her first book and give that a try.* Graphic, detailed sex scenesCON'S:*...

Couldn't finish it

I've never rated a book a 1, but after reading a quarter of the book, I didn't like the characters. Everything was too shaded in mystery. I struggled to keep up with the three different time frames. There just wasn't enough to keep me turning the page. So I'm afraid I gave up. My suggestion...

Four stars, but with reservations due to dumb plot devices

* Some Plot Spoilers * I enjoyed the romance of Stuart and Verity, but hated the ending with the Dowager Duchess. The reader is supposed to believe that this woman who terrorized her niece, Verity for years, was only trying to look out for her? Not offering her a scrap of help, only contacting...

Better than the first book

OK, I finally got a chance to read 'Delicious' this week and I liked it better than 'Private Arrangement' (Sherry Thomas' 1st book).The Good:Delicious' theme is still the same as the 1st book: about 2 people who have a past passionate history together, get separated, and meet again after a number...

An author worth reading.

This is an engrossing and well-written tale. You have to suspend your belief for the main love story, but if that doesn't bother you, then you are in for a treat. This book was full of humor, the characters and their relationships well developed, and both love stories satisfying. I read only...
