GREAT WAY TO TURN AROUND A BAD DAY!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
If life gives you lemons don't bother to make lemonade just read "Love and Meatballs". It's a great way to turn around a bad day! "Love and Meatballs" is a fun read that moves quickly through one adventerous laugh-out-loud period of the Cerbone family. So real you could expect a friend to be explaining the various complications of family and business over a cup of tea. It had me laughing on a day when I didn't think I would laugh. Excellent first novel....Where are you going to take us next Ms. Volland?

Love & Meatballs is a fun and tasty read. I couldn't put it down!
Charming!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Lovely bed-time reading. Charming characters, refreshing plot, easy and a pleasure to read. *I* want to meet *the guy* though--and isn't that an effect a romance novel/mystery should have? Really charming: a romance novel without patronizing or simplistic cliche-characters, mystery without manipulation or the obvious plot. Silly, silly.. those harsh reviews!
HYSTERICAL!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I laughed out loud all through this book! It's hysterical. The story drew me in immediately to the point that I was annoyed when I had to put the book down to answer the phone. A fast, fun read that takes you into an Italian American family and their chaotic kitchen. Great characters each with distinctive `voices'. I'll never look at ferns the same way again! P.s. the reviewer before me might consider their level of anger toward such a delightful book?
BRAVO!!!

My dad picked this book out for me, and he did a wonderful job! I loved the characters in this book and didn't hurt that it was from WA either! This book was packed with spirit, love, family and everything a reader could ask for! I can't wait to try the recipes, esp the hash! Read it in just a few hours, but make sure when you start it you have enough time to finish it because you won't want to put it down!
