Like Water for Chocolate by Carol Christensen, Laura Esquivel, Thomas Christensen (1995, Paperback, Reprint)

I bought it because I teach Spanish and am always looking for material I can include in class. I loved the down home folksy manner in which she writes. I love the home remedies and recipes. It was a fun read and amusing on several different levels.

I bought it for a class and the book was actually really interesting. It was a good book but not the best I've ever read. The importance of food in the book is mind blowing. The end kind of suprised me but still ended well. It was a fast read and time well spent.

I needed the text book and received it in a timely manor. I was also pleased to see that the book arrived as it was described; this is always a delightful pleasure. Thanks again for your business and I hope to buy or sell with you again soon.

I LOVE this book! The first time I read this book I was in High School. I finished the book in two days. I was intrigued by the in depth description. This book describes passion and love-making! It's an excellent book for your adults or older. Not suitable for younger teenagers or children. My uncle owns a business in Mexico. The author, Laura Esquivel, is my uncle's customer. I've always wanted to meet her and compliment her on her artistic talent. This book combines the two things that get a man's heart: Cooking and lust!

I have seen the movie many times, and I wanted the book to get the recipes so I can learn to make so of the dishes that they ate. I didn't like the fact that thier were no pictures to go with each main part of the story.
I bought it because of the recipes and because the part when every one ate the quail and rose petal dish , her sister Gertrudis began to feel heat, sweat, thinking about the Pancho Villa's men. That is the way I get when I visit my husband that is in a State Facility.

I bought this book becouse my high school senior needed it for an IB English class. The price even with shipping was wonderful. He got an A on the project so it was well worth it.
