The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake


This was a different book. I'm not really sure how much I liked it. I think the writing felt like a dream to me (or something.) It is about a girl that starts tasting what people are feeling through food. When she tries her mothers lemon cake, she can taste the immense sadness that her mom doesn't show, but feels. Kind of a downer, huh. I guess it felt a bit coming-of-age-ish to me (which I don't usually enjoy) and maybe I just didn't "get it." If you do, will you fill me in?
