the first time I saw one of Laura's books we were in Phoenix
exhibiting my husbands sculpture show. The weather was hot the sun almost always lite the intense blue sky. Bruce first read the book and highly recommended it to me because of the similarities of ethnic origins.
To read Like Water for Chocolate is like taking a emotional course on life. Laura's story telling made it's way through my eyes and landed in my heart. Her descriptions of her emotions and the linking to food and it's preparation was superb. You will find that you prepare and enloy food in a way you never did before. If you want to be in someone else's shoes and heart for the length of this book then I highly recommend it. I savored every page of the last chapter, knowing that the end
was near, I could not bear to finish it. I have tried to explain my feeling through my sculpture, I can only hope that I can
achieve as well as Laura Esquirel does.
I always have one of her books on the go. Instead of reading from start to finish I now read a chapter here and there as an emothional treat. It's not where you end up, it's how you get there. thankyou Laura Esquirel for that.

Good. It was like the seller said it would be. quick delivery, very honest!

I had been wanting to watch the movie for a long time and just hadnt. Then in one of my classes we were assigned this book (didnt know the movie was based on a book). Read the book, in spanish, and I LOVED IT. Growing up with a very strict Mexican culture, there were times I could identify with Tita. The movie follows the book exaclty,but a shorter version obviously. I usually dont read romance books, more into thrillers, but loved this one. HIGHLY RECOMEND.
