 Rating:  - A little flaky?This is the first Kate Jacobs book I have read, and I was a little disappointed. The premise was interesting, but it felt like it was written in the style of too many other "chick lit" books, unfortunately. The love lines were predictable, and while some parts seemed to read extremely slow, there were holes in other areas. Not to ruin it for anyone, but the ending comes together in a neat little package without much room for the reader to draw their own conclusions or wonder what might have happened ... Read More Rating: - A slow readThis book was disappointing. I was hoping for the 'can't put it down' moments with this book, but it just didn't happen. As a result I ended up skipping a few chapters to the end. And when I did, I felt that I didn't miss that much in between. I gave it three stars because overall the author is a good writer, but this story wasn't engaging to me. Rating:  - A bland and boring recipeI loved the Friday Night Knitting Club and couldn't put it down. In contrast, I found Jacobs' second book to be difficult to pick up. The characters are bland and not very believable, and the plot moves like molasses. It just feels like the publisher rushed this one to print, and I was so disappointed. As evidenced by her first book, I do think Kate Jacobs is a talented storyteller, and I hope she'll return to form in the next one! Rating:  - Truly disappointedI was very excited for Comfort Food as I LOVED Friday Night Knitting Club and I was completely disappointed with this book. The book just seemed very slow and boring, there was a focus on food but the food didn't bring the characters together like the knitting store did in her previous book. I think that she tried to use that same common thread again and it just didn't work. Rating:  - Well written, but flawedI read this Author's previous book, The Friday Night Knitting Club, and I was not as enamored with this one, but I still had an enjoyable time reading the book. My problem was that it read as if the author is just waiting for a film option (I can see it now, Diane Lane as "Gus"!), This book is definitely very plot driven, so I felt that I didn't get to know the characters as deeply as I would have liked to. Still, I always love a good book about a foodie!
