You know what they say if you can’t take the heat stay out of the kitchen…

This was my first time reading a book by Bethany Turner and I loved her sense of humor and style of writing. This story of two chefs learning to work together was filled with several ups and downs and great life lessons. The storyline reminded me of Iron Chef or Chopped

Nancy Bilyeau recommended The Concubine in Books (curated)

"A novel set in Tudor England that continues to move me on each reading—a beautifully written and emotionally complex book about Anne Boleyn that is courageous enough to resist easy explanations of the English queen’s appeal and creates a woman who could change the course of history with intelligence, style, and nerve tinged with recklessness, and driven by a dark ambition that eventually devoured her."

Rolling Stone's 454th greatest album of all time (2020)

I had heard of this album through Elis James' podcast as he is a big fan. I was expecting it to be much more MC5-style garage rock, so was surprised at how experimental and noisy it was. While a little disappointed (based on my own overbuilt expectations), I will give it another listen later.

"He wrote perfect sentences, too, but very indirect, very complicated. Sentences with sinkholes. You could drown in them. I wouldn’t dare to write one. I’m not even sure I’d dare to read James again. I loved those novels so much that I was paralyzed by them for a long time. All those possibilities. All that perfectly reconciled style. It made me afraid to put words down."
