Thank you to Kaion for coming up with the title of this book! Check out the group "What's the Name of that book??!!" sometime if you ever have a synopsis running amok in your mind but can't come up with the title. Cool group!

Anyway, from what I remember about this book, I really enjoyed it. There was some very nice character development and realistic protrayal of a family. I loved all the cooking Devi described too.
