This book is a tantalizing novel that skillfully weaves together the aromatic tapestry of family, tradition, and the enchanting world of spices. Set against the vibrant backdrop of India and England, the author takes us on a sensory journey that is as rich and complex as the flavors she describes.
The author writing is a feast for the senses. Her vivid descriptions of spices and their origins create a symphony of flavors that leaps off the pages. Her ability to evoke the scents and tastes is nothing short of impressive.
We follow a multi-generational family saga full of love and loss while we explore a dual timeline. First, we follow Bindu's story in 1930's India, and then Eve's story in 1980's London. The connection between the two stories takes some time to reveal itself but it's fantastic when it happens.
While the plot is engaging, there are moments where the pacing feels a bit uneven. Some parts of the narrative are slower with a focus on intricate details. However, it is perfect for those who savor a more immersive storytelling experience, since this attention to detail, adds depth to the narrative.
I adored this story since the very beginning until the last page. It kept me so hooked that I read It in one setting. I highly recommend it to all who enjoy an exploration to family and heritage with a blend of cultural richness and a dash of spice.
Thank you, NetGalley & the publisher, for approving me to read this arc and write this review.
