| 2. |  | Diners, Drive-ins and Dives: An All-American Road Trip . . . with Recipes! (Food Network) from William Morrow Cookbooks Price: $13.57 Customer Review: I bought this book for my Father for a Christmas present. He travels in his motorhome and has mentioned he would love to stop at some of the diners that were on the show. So I bought him the book and a large atlas and marked the diners locations on the map so now he knows in advance if he will be... |

| 4. |  | In Defense of Food: An Eater's Manifesto from Penguin Audio Customer Review:  I bought the paper book and got halfway through it before buying the audio version -- after realizing I have more time to drive than to read. This is an excellent, concise and eminently sensible book about how the food scientists and food industry and even the government have sacrificed our natural... |

And easy. Rachel really knows how to put together everyday things for even the beginner. I'm not a great cook and I can put together most of these things. Like I said, something for everyone. Buy it. |

| 7. |  | Biggest Loser Family Cookbook: Budget-Friendly Meals Your Whole Family Will Love from Rodale Books Price: $13.17 Customer Review:  I'm kind of bummed 'cuz I saw that the price went down a little a few days after I bought it. I also expected more recipes so that was also a little disappointing. If interested in buying this book, I would recommend checking it out from a library first to judge more accurately how much use you'd... |

| 8. |  | Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day: The Discovery That Revolutionizes Home Baking from Thomas Dunne Books Price: $16.77 Customer Review: Although I've enjoyed baking for years, I always found baking bread to be intimidating, until I bought this book. I dove right in, and using their recipes had great results almost immediately. But I think one has to keep it in perspective. Their technique will not enable you to produce the same... |

| 9. |  | Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life (P.S.) from Harper Perennial Price: $10.17 Customer Review: I listened to the audio version of this book--read by the author. It is wonderful. Barbara Kingsolver has a lovely voice and a charming sense of humor, and...her book is very well-written. She and her husband and daughter give a very intelligent, impactful rendering of the subject of growing one's... |

| 12. |  | Hello, Cupcake!: Irresistibly Playful Creations Anyone Can Make from Houghton Mifflin Co Price: $9.38 Customer Review: This was probably my favorite Christmas gift this year. I had heard about the book but didn't know the magic inside. The best part is that you are creating from items you can find at most grocery stores, no special materials or ingredients necessary. Also, it is written in a way that improvisation... |

| 13. |  | The Flavor Bible: The Essential Guide to Culinary Creativity, Based on the Wisdom of America's Most Imaginative Chefs from Little, Brown and Company Price: $23.10 Customer Review:  I know I would have enjoyed this book(s) if I had ever gotten them. 1 look books never sent me anything: not my books, not an answer to my e-mails(plural), but of course they billed my credit card the day I sent the order. That was 24 Nov. and it is now Dec.27, 2008. My review: I truely liked the... |

| 14. |  | Skinny Bitch: A No-Nonsense, Tough-Love Guide for Savvy Girls Who Want to Stop Eating Crap and Start Looking Fabulous from Tantor Media Price: $16.49 Customer Review: It's not that I object to messages about the benefits of a vegan lifestyle (which many of my close friends practice btw) or that I mind direct, candid, witty communications. HOWEVER - I strongly object to being mislead into making a purchase by positioning that totally misrepresents the intent of... |

However, this is the first one that I've owned where I actually want to make everything in the book. We made our first two recipes tonight (Baked Shrimp with Tomatoes and Feta and Chickpea and Spinach Salad with Cumin Dressing). The taste was phenomenal and was both healthy... |

| 16. |  | You: on a Diet: The Owner's Manual for Waist Management from Thorndike Press Price: $29.53 Customer Review: This book talks to you in an easy to understand way and it shows you details of what you're doing to your body by being overweight. Plus it's not a sales pitch for a diet website like "best life". |

| 17. |  | Hungry Girl: Recipes and Survival Strategies for Guilt-Free Eating in the Real World from St. Martin's Griffin Price: $12.21 Customer Review: I was super excited to get this book after hearing all of the media surrounding Hungry Girl and how weight-watcher friendly she is. I have tried at least 10 of these recipes and every single one of them was disappointing. They were not outright inedible but there are definitely better recipes with... |

It's a great go-to source for the beginner cook -- everything from selecting meats & produce to getting the right tools for your kitchen all the way to basic & detailed cooking techniques -- but it also serves as a great... |

| 20. |  | BakeWise: The Hows and Whys of Successful Baking with Over 200 Magnificent Recipes from Scribner Price: $26.40 Customer Review: Great gift. Got this for Christmas and I love it. I always wanted to know what a particular ingredient did and this book answers those questions. I've baked for years but didn't fully understand some of the "why's" certain things were done. |

| 21. |  | Giada's Kitchen: New Italian Favorites from Clarkson Potter Price: $21.45 Customer Review: When it comes to Giada di Laurentiis all I can think is the most delicious italian food ever, but made the easy way. Her dishes are easy to make, full of taste and colour, but specially 100% italian. You don't need to go to Italy to taste its great food, just open this book and try... |

| 22. |  | On Food and Cooking: The Science and Lore of the Kitchen from Scribner Price: $26.40 Customer Review: This book is simply amazing. It has to be the most useful utensil in any kitchen. As a scientist, I love the in-depth treatment that is given to almost every aspect of almost every edible thing on earth. It may not be the most appropriate book to everyone. You must be willing to dedicate a lot of... |

| 23. |  | The Widow Clicquot: The Story of a Champagne Empire and the Woman Who Ruled It from Collins Business Price: $17.13 Customer Review: This book is a difficult read. The author has to "imagine" what it was like back in the day when this lady lived. She references that many times because she (or anyone) does not have any facts regarding the exact life of this subject in her early years. This book is only for people who are really,... |

| 24. |  | How to Cook Everything Vegetarian: Simple Meatless Recipes for Great Food from Wiley Price: $23.10 Customer Review: I'll just add to the raves of other readers who found this book to be a wonderful addition to their cookbooks. I must have over 150 cookbooks, and this was on my shelf for quite some time before I picked it up recently. I was amazed at the recipes, and I will turn to this book more and more in the... |

| 25. |  | Veganomicon: The Ultimate Vegan Cookbook from Da Capo Press Price: $18.15 Customer Review:  This cookbook has lots of (probably very good) vegan recipes - so in that regard, it's great -for vegans looking for lots of vegan recipes in one book. But as far as cookbooks go, this book does not excite me. Not because it's vegan, but because there are almost no pictures. No pictures means... |

| 27. |  | I Like You: Hospitality Under the Influence from Grand Central Publishing Price: $10.87 Customer Review: I loved this book. If you're a fan of Amy Sedaris, it's absolutely perfect and her humor. I found the 1 star reviews here pretty hilarious. If you read the reviews and descriptions, or even google Amy Sedaris you're going to know immediately the kind of humor in a book like this. Who buys a... |

| 28. |  | Kitchen Confidential Updated Ed: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly (P.S.) from Harper Perennial Price: $10.85 Customer Review: By all accounts, this should be a lousy book. The life story of a middle-aged, former substance-abusing, self-described SOB and good-but-not-great chef. In the hands of most people, this would be a rambling, uninteresting memoir that would never see the light of day. The fact that Bourdain pulls it... |

| 29. |  | The New Best Recipe: All-New Edition from America's Test Kitchen Price: $23.10 Customer Review: Don't get me wrong, I love this cookbook. That is, I love reading it and looking at tips on what NOT to do in a recipe, and if I have something particular in mind that I want to cook, I go to this book for a tried-and-true recipe. The major caveat is that, when I want to cook something quickly on a... |

| 30. |  | Alinea from Ten Speed Press Price: $31.50 Customer Review: Everything about ths book was impressive. Physically, it's much larger and heavier than I was expecting and the quality of the pages and printing is outstanding. The quality really helps show off the wonderfull photos that make this book a great piece of table art, as well as a book of recipies. |
