I really like Reichl's language and descriptions, but not... sold on the plotting. This is like three books in one, simultaneously, and the effect is that each separate line feels like it's going on forever. It's about a woman learning to make friends and cook again after grief! No wait, it's a romance about restoring old houses! No wait, it's an epistolary mystery with a deeply contrived setup! Get on with it.
