As a mildly-neurotic, chocolate-craving, Jewish woman who continues to do her share of searching and longing - I thought this was GREAT! A beautifully packaged book with gorgeous photographs; when the story wandered a bit and didn't always hang together, it was no big deal. Maybe it's me, (I do prefer subtlety) but I found this to be way more erotic than "Fifty Shades..."

Poetically written. A truly delicious bit of literature and a quick read. I had to buy some truffles after finishing this one.
