The Kamogawa Food Detectives by Hisashi Kashiwai
emotional reflective slow-paced

This was delightfully cozy and heartwarming! I loved that it centers around a father and daughter who recreate lost recipes. This book will make you so hungry, and the stories were so touching. I loved the exploration of memories related to food and how they can evoke such emotional responses. I wish this had a bit more of the investigation of the lost recipes, but this was just what I needed at the right time. I'm excited to continue with the series!
