Very well indeed. I loved this book. The poor Tita had to live a life where she couldn't get married. She had to take care of her mother until the day she died.
I think the book was excellent. I liked the way she incorporated recipes to the story, not only giving you the principal recipe but some other thing to cover. Also, I think that after all that happened she had her closure, with that beautiful kind-of-sad ending.
One thing that totally surprised me to read but was also delightful, was the exaggeration she used to describe some things or feelings. Like, for example, when she described all the tears they shed, or the heat they felt. I though that she managed all those parts very well. I though that the descriptions where precise and beautiful, sometimes even funny.
I absolutely loved this book, and I recommend it to anyone who wants to read a great book that will make you laugh and maybe even cry. Of course, maybe for the most little you wouldn't let them read this one, but it's not so.
