  <default_description>A delightful memoir of learning to eat superbly while remaining gluten free.&amp;#8221;- Newsweek magazine   &lt;p&gt;   &quot;Give yourself a treat! &lt;i&gt;Gluten-Free Girl&lt;/i&gt; offers delectable tips on dining and living with zest&amp;#8211;gluten-free. This is a story for anyone who is interested in changing his or her life from the inside out!&quot;&amp;#8211;Alice Bast, executive director National Foundation for Celiac Awareness   &lt;p&gt;   &amp;#8220;Shauna's food, the ignition of healthy with delicious, explodes with flavor&amp;#8212;proof positive that people who choose to eat gluten-free can do it with passion, perfection, and power.&amp;#8221;&#160; &amp;#8211;John La Puma, MD, &lt;i&gt;New York Times&lt;/i&gt; bestselling co-author of &lt;i&gt;The RealAge Diet&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Cooking the RealAge Way&lt;/i&gt;   &lt;p&gt;   &amp;#8220;A breakthrough first book by a gifted writer not at all what I expected from a story about living with celiac disease. Foodies everywhere will love this book. Celiacs will make it their bible.&amp;#8221; &amp;#8212;Linda Carucci, author of Cooking School Secrets for Real World Cooks and IACP Cooking Teacher of the Year, 2002   &lt;p&gt;   An entire generation was raised to believe that cooking meant opening a box, ripping off the plastic wrap, adding water, or popping it in the microwave. &lt;i&gt;Gluten-Free Girl&lt;/i&gt;, with its gluten-free healthful approach, seeks to bring a love of eating back to our diets. Living gluten-free means having to give up traditional bread, beer, pasta, as well as the foods where gluten likes to hide&amp;#8212;such as store-bought ice cream, chocolate bars, even nuts that might have been dusted with flour. However, &lt;i&gt;Gluten-Free Girl&lt;/i&gt; shows readers how to say yes to the foods they &lt;i&gt;can&lt;/i&gt; eat. Written by award-winning blogger Shauna James, who became a&#160;interested in food&#160;once she was diagnosed with celiac disease and went gluten-free, &lt;i&gt;Gluten-Free Girl&lt;/i&gt;&#160;is filled with funny accounts of the author&amp;#8217;s own life including wholesome,&#160;delicious recipes, this book will guide readers to the simple pleasures of real, healthful food. Includes dozens of recipes&#160;like salmon with blackberry sauce, sorghum bread, and lemon olive oil cookies as well as resources for those living gluten-free.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[Shauna wrote this book after she found out she had celiac disease &amp; had to give up gluten.  While it was nice to read about how she learned to eat better &amp; treat her body right, she's kind of a food snob &amp; most of her ideas arent very realistic for most people, like no one I know would spend $25 on ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/25874910">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I'm not really a fan of self-help books, and this book is written like one, even if it does include some recipes. <br/>But my interest in this comes from my gluten-free lifestyle and adventures in gluten-free cooking. For that, it was kind of like reading a peptalk--a feel-good book for celiacs. Th...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/39118499">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I really like this book. It's not a &quot;how-to,&quot; that part is a bit misleading. It's an attitude adjustment. When you have first been hit with the wallop that says &quot;the food that you eat everyday is killing you. You must stop NOW,&quot; it can be panic-inducing.

I've read Ahern's blog for years (on and off) in the same way I've been gluten-free (on and off) since sometime in 2004.
