I received a free copy of this book in the Members Giveaway section on LibraryThing in exchange for a review.The photos look great and the instructions are clear and easy to follow. I love how the author added in those comments on what ingredients we can use as alternatives and I especially appreciate the "hotness level" guide right at the end because I can't really take spicy food so it lets me gauge which dishes are suitable for me and which I should steer clear of. Plus, being a lousy cook, I seldom to never remember the names of the spices I use, so having those extra pictures let me go, "Oh, so this is it!"It would be much better if the instructions were written out in point form instead of in paragraphs, though, because being the lousy cook that I am, I often refer to the recipe halfway during cooking and it's hard to see where exactly I'm at when everything is written in paragraphs. Fortunately, the instructions are simple and straight forward so I'm actually able to remember most of it.The same review appears on LibraryThing
