The Coincidence of Coconut Cake

— It's like You've Got Mail, but with food. There's nothing special, but it's an easy and enjoyable read.

Every now and then it's a treat to spend a Sunday afternoon reading an entire book. This book was a treat and well worth my time. It's a feel-good story about two people who somehow find each other despite circumstances that should separate them, with a healthy dose of foodie love thrown into the mix. I loved that the book had a good amount of detail about food, given that one of the main characters is a chef, but it made me want to go into my kitchen to whip something up, as opposed to weighing the story down.

A quick, fluffy read that made me hungry more than anything. I think I would have liked this book better if it had been told in the first person POV rather than third. I feel like we don't get to know much about the characters. There are more details about the food, thus the reason this was only a 3-star read for me.
