My Berlin Kitchen: A Love Story, with Recipes Audiobook

" Although I'm thrilled to have found a contemporary book written by a (half) American living in Germany, I think my expectations were too high, so I was a little disappointed by this book. I think I was mostly put off by Luisa's "grass is greener" complex which made her come off as both indecisive and melodramatic. I would have enjoyed this book more if she hadn't spent her time justifying/analyzing herself, but rather focused on sharing her life and experiences. "

" Starts out good, but last few chapters unnecessary. Seems like they were tacked on merely to lengthen the book not really advance the story. "

" A nice story, good recipes. Kind of a cross between Eat, Love, Pray and Julie & Julia. "

" I am not sure if I would have enjoyed this book as much if I wasn't already an avid reader of the author's food blog. That said, the recipes are mouthwatering, and I enjoyed getting a further glimpse into one of my favorite blogger's life. "

" Love the recipes and worldwide vision. Wish it had been a little less mopey! "

" loving it.. "

" Felt like this was a bad blog of a person who could not decide what she wanted to do with her life and really did not think any of the recipes were all that enticing. "

" Fun read with recipes. "

" A charming memoir for the foodie, armchair travel from the Wednesday Chef food blogger. "

" Cute memoir written by a fellow Tufts Jumbo! Lots of recipes and stories about life in Brookline, Berlin and NYC. "

" I think this works better as a blog. I rarely don't finish a book but I totally lost interest and couldn't force myself to pick it up. "

" What I liked most in this book was the refreshing, honest tone of the narrator. I felt immediately like chatting with a girlfriend. "

" Thank you for a food memoir that is German based. I love France and Italy but there's more to Europe worth reading about and experiencing. "

" Great fun read! fast paced... "

" An entertaining read, however some phrases are reused to often. The Kindle copy had many typos in it. I enjoyed it until the final 2-3 chapters. Can't wait to try out some of the recipes. "

" I enjoy travel, cooking and memoirs. This book has it all plus lots of heart. If you believe that cooking is love then you'll probably enjoy it too. A quick read with lots of recipes - I will try a couple of them. And add Berlin to my list of place that I want to visit. "

" Good. I've just read too many books like this lately (life, foreign countries, recipes)....the Berlin element is interesting but not overly interesting. I couldn't finish (but I had other good books in the lineup.) "

" This was a lovely book and one of my favorite kinds - memoir mixed with food. It reminded me quite a bit of A Homemade Life which I also enjoyed. "

" I'd heard great reviews about this book from the foodie bloggers I follow. It was good but not as good as I was expecting. And I'm not sure I'd try any of the recipes - not really my style of cooking. A nice love story though... "
