Well written review. Not the kind of book that I would read though.

I have found myself in circumstances where I had to find my way in a job through dishonesty. But I regretted it later. This is why I would love to have a touch of this book.

It sounds like a good fictional book. It makes you think of a good book of hope. I really like the review thank you.

Today's BOTD is a romantic comedy with relatable characters, realistic events, and an overall good message. Readers looking for a fun, light read will be happy with one! And that cover...I can't get enough! It's awesome! Thank you for your review!! :-)

Atlast would definitely have a hard time coming clean, but he would have to do it eventually. Thanks for the review.

Latest Review: How to Discover the Authentic Life Story by L. E. Rhoden

The story line sounds great. I love that Atlas manages to get the tv chef job with no cooking experience. The addition of some comedy is great to with an emotionally charged story. Thanks for a great review.

It seems you are very fond of the book, of the characters, and of the author. Still, I would have preferred you to use a less ambiguous phrasing for the clarity of your messages. For instance, you give a quote from the book about Selina, the main female character, and then continue speaking about the author, only you refer to the author as "she", so it is not clear at first whether "she' is Selina or the author.
Another instance is when you present two features as contrasting, when, in fact, they are not.
Your grading of the book is 4 out of 4 stars, and so are the other two or three reviews mentioned, so I wonder why the general score of the book is less than 3.

I like the title and cover for this interesting book that revolves around two key characters; Atlas a would-be chef who gets the job on a TV show by not being quite honest. He will learn that his viewers value honesty. Looking forward to finding out what happens when Atlas comes clean. Selina, his TV producer boss has her own issues. A nicely written story with descriptive text and peppered with a little humor sounds like a good read. Thanks for the nice review.

This sounds like a very interesting story to read and I like the title that the author chose for her book. I also like that the author wrote the story in such a way that it felt free flowing and there weren't any words that made the reader confused. The characterization of the two main characters was done very well and each character did not outshine the other.

There are a few things I love already. The cover is what drew me to want to read more. I think I need to read more than a sample few pages. Description and lots of detail are key to a good book and this looks like it has these components. Let’s be real though, it always feels like the better choice to be honest. If we are not we are only cheating ourselves. I am looking forward to reading and reviewing this book.

A book that mixes culinary with comedy and life lessons makes an awesome combination.
