"The 2011 Book Blogger's Cookbook"

by Christy Dorrity, non fiction, 2011, Kindle ebook, 108p, rating=5
Source: own

Great books, bloggers, and recipes meet in this fresh and unique cookbook that helps you experience books, not just read them.
Books were selected from the author’s book review blog and paired with delectable recipes like “Fairy Touched Calico Brownies” from the Fablehaven series by Brandon Mull, “7-Day Layer Dip” from Lauren Oliver’s Before I Fall, and “I Hate Chocolate Cake” from Amanda Hocking’s Switched. Mouthwatering photos complement every recipe.

The 2011 Book Blogger’s Cookbook includes a foreword by Amanda Hocking, author of the USA Today Bestselling Trylle Trilogy and showcases over seventy reviews with links to book review blogs and author websites.

Whether you're a food lover, an avid reader or a book blogger, there’s something for you in The 2011 Book Blogger’s Cookbook. (Goodreads)

Tie a recipe to a book, what a fabulous idea!  I'm probably bias because I'm a book blogger but I absolutely love this book!  Here certain books are featured.  For each featured book, you'll see an image of the book, its blurb, brief reviews from few book bloggers, and a recipe correlating to the particular book.  The food featured looks divine and the recipes seem simple and easy to follow.  I especially enjoyed the foreword from Amanda Hocking.  She gave a wonderful shout out to book bloggers and I felt proud that I could include myself in her praises.  She recognized that book blogging is a tough non-paying, juggle with our day jobs ... parent, student, etc.  Anyway, I'm looking forward to trying to bake "Raised by Magic Quick Rolls".  I love rolls and these look soft and golden.  Oh, and the book, Alvor by Laura Bingham, that it was paired with sounds like a magical read.  Never heard of it, now I have!  So yes, this did have something for moi!  Great job Ms Dorrity.
