An interesting premise that was just not capitalized on.

The main character can taste emotion within food. This automatically intrigued me, and I wanted to buy this. However, I eventually rented it from the library and I am very glad that I did so.

This is one of those books where I wanted to like it. It had interesting ideas within, but it was not that cohesive and the writing was a little too bleak for my taste.
