Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. Each week they provide a topic and you are free to use that topic and/or variations of that topic to make your top ten list. You don’t have to do all ten. Instead you can do three, five, fifteen, whatever you want. A full list of the weekly themes can be found here.
This week on Top Ten Tuesday, our theme is Top Ten Yummy Foods Mentioned In Books (Does a character eat something you’d love? Or maybe the book takes place in a bakery/restaurant that makes yummy things? You could also talk about 10 of your favorite cookbooks if you don’t read foody books.). Rather than my usual rambling about each book and why I chose it I’ll try to keep it brief. Incredibly brief as my original draft for this post went poof and disappeared and I didn’t notice until I went to hit post…
What books have you read that feature food or use food to express a concept?

I didn’t even think about that Nora Roberts, but YES!

I know! Laurel’s baking always has me craving sweets. I can’t help it. And I love that her personality isn’t full on sweet like her baking. What is the description Roberts uses as a metaphor for her personality? I think its, “…just enough beeswax in the spun sugar.”

I also put The Night Circus on my list! I haven’t read Caraval but if I had I am sure it would be on my list too. I love carnival food!

I love the descriptions of food in The Night Circus. Moregenstern worded it so carefully and it is like you can actually smell it. I wish she would publish another book. Sigh.
