Lucie's Review: Charlotte Gregory learned a lot about cooking at Fannnie Farmer's School of Cookery, everything from nutrition and cleanliness and creating delicious meals. But no one wants to give Charlotte a chance, not the chef at the hotel or the doctor at the hospital where her sister Hannah just had her baby.
Dr. Joel Brooks has a lot on his mind. He is the youngest superintendent at the hospital, his budget is tight and a young terminal patient. He doesn't have time to worry about how the food tastes or anything other than the matters he considers important, can a determined young woman change his mind?
This is a fun, fast-paced read, with many humorous moments that made me grin ear-to-ear. The side character were stellar, friends and encouragers, always pointing Joel and Charlotte to God.
Circumstances bring Charlotte and Joel together, they are both strong, determined individuals, with equally strong opinions. I loved how they kept being brought together.
Overall, this was a fantastic read with great characters, and many wonderful historical elements. One of the things that I thought was really awesome, was how Fannie Farmer really did have a school of cookery that used standardized measurements, and emphasized nutrition, simplifying and revolutionizing cooking. Just an absolutely delightful full read, and a wonderful addition to the Gregory Sisters Series.
