Title: More cuisine, less skanking around
Review: Reichl is an outstanding food writer who deserves her legendary reputation. And thus, when in this book she writes about things that have even a tenuous connection to food, it's great. Unfortunately, all too often it bogs down amid the unsympathetic, selfish, narcissistic cast of characters - including Reichl - and their infidelities, petty squabbles, etc. If I wanted that, I'd read Jackie Collins or Danielle Steele....
