such a fun start to the series. i loved the beginning of the book having a dictionary and cultural references. i learned a lot, and spent the entire book starving because the food descriptions sounded so good!! 
the plot was also crazy and very similar to the finlay donovan series, which i loved! cant wait to continue the series!
