Thanks for sharing! Welcome!

A chef friend of mine told me about EatYourBooks.com because I was overwhelmed by finding recipes in my cookbooks. If you are like me be sure to check it out. I have 82 cookbooks on my Goodreads shelf which are also indexed at EatYourBook> plus my cooking magazines are also indexed there.

In addition to my cookbooks and magazines, EatYourBooks has a World Calendar of Cookbook Events, information about new cookbooks, other cookbook clubs, and more!

This post is NOT necessarily an endorsement but a sharing of information since I had not know of this sites existence. I find it helpful for me...it may or may not work for you. But please let me now what you think!

My goal is to read 1 cookbook a month so 12 for the year.

I'm Ann and I started this group because I set a goal for 2025 to read 12 cookbooks...1 a month. I was looking for others who enjoy reading cookbooks so I thought I would start this group since other similar groups appear to be dormant. I hope you will join me!

I am new to hosting a group so I have a lot to learn. I'd love your input and feedback. If you want to co-host with me, please let me know,. I wil do my best to keep up and keep this group active and relevant.

Tell us a little about yourself! Why you joined? What you hope to get our of this group
