Review title: Still terrific, 6 yrs later Product review: I first posted a review in January 2000, shortly after I bought this book. It is still, in September 2006, one of my all-time favorite cookbooks. Madhur Jaffrey is amazingly talented in writing recipes that please. If you want a cookbook with different, but accessible recipes that are full of flavor and really tasty, this is a great choice. ( Original review: Imaginative recipes that are full-flavored, delicious, and easy to make. This ranks with Deborah Madison's "Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone" as one of the best vegetarian cookbooks around.)

Product review: I was lucky enough to get a case of this magical stuff from Amazon when the Amazon Grocery store went live. I've not been able to find it anywhere..I'm assuming it's a new product and hasn't yet made it to your average retailer..I've been a big fan of the Tilex Mold and Mildew Remover and have used it pretty much exclusively in the shower/tub areas of my bathrooms.I had tried many other products with little luck.It does a fine job but requires some elbow work. The Root Penetrator and Remover comes along and I thought I'd give it a try. Voila, no elbow work. Ugly discoloration gone after 5-10 minutes contact and a simple wipe with a paper towel. No brush scrubbing. I love this stuff. Hopefully Amazon will have this amazing product available to the masses soon..Only areas not cleaned sparkling new are areas with silicone caulking. Nothing can get rid of that except applying new caulking..

Review title: Difficult to Read Product review: I have yet to miss a book in this series but I wished I did this one. The family history was confusing especially when the author kept referring to them differently -- one sentence a character might be referred to as Great-Great grandfather and the next it would be Leatha's grandfather. Also, I was confused as to a character that had a different name than what was on the family tree so I had no clue what was going on -- I did go back and re-read portions after I had read an except of a diary entry and the light went on but reading 120 pages for a light to blink... well, 'nuff said.Once I figured out who the characters all were, the plot was so obvious it hurt and to have to read China being braindead with her questions to figure out the truth was less than thrilling.Had I not had the prior history of this series, I would have never made it through this book.Let's hope the next one get's back to the roots of China (and McQuaid).
