Title: Love this! Great new take on toast for dessert, dinner, lunch or even breakfast.
Review: Love this book! Tasty, easy recipes that combine unique flavirs. The macadamia nut white chocolate toast was unbelievably good. An appetizer more than a dessert. The avocado toast was quick, easy and a unique blend of ingredients that I had in my house. I haven't been much of a bread person for the past several years, these recipes have reintroduced me to how good it can be when it's the background for a beautiful melding of flavors rather than an overwhelming filler. I highly suggest recommend this book as a great staple for your kitchen or as a gift.

Review: I was excited to get this book as I had heard it was great but I was not so impressed. Tore out a couple of pages and then passed the book on to someone else. Would have liked to get a refund.

Review: This is an OK book depending on your taste, but most of the recipes are not to mine. There are perhaps five I like. The chapters are organized by season; however I would have preferred by meat, veg, and sweet. You may like it better than I do...but I would rather have chosen differently for the money.
