Rezensionen
This is not just another recipe book for making great cocktails, each page pairs a delicious, easy to make drink with a book and the author's biography as well as some additional reading recommendations.
Rating: 5I absolutely love love this book. It is fun. Classic books and classic cocktails. What more could you want? There is a drink listed for every author listed in the book alongside one of the books they wrote. Some of the drinks are based on characters in their books and others are based on the authors themselves. I will soon be reading the books with friends and having the corresponding cocktail. This book is a must for anyone who loves cocktails and books. This book was provided to me free through the Goodreads First Reads program. This did not in anyway reflect my rating.
Rating: 5Cocktails for Book Lovers offers 50 recipes straight from the pages of, or at least suggested by, famous authors and their books. The recipes range from classics, like William Faulkner's favorite Mint Julep, to the imaginative, like a "Sherry Alexander" inspired by Thrity Umrigar.I love books. I love cocktails. Perfect!
Rating: 4This book was neat! Not only did it give you background on some famous authors, but it also tied interesting cocktails to some of history's greatest works. I liked it!
Rating: 5I just have to say that this is a delightful little book. Each chapter is about an author, with a drink inspired by that author, quotes by the author and added recommendations for further reading. Oh yes, I can not forget that the book also includes recipes to make these special drinks. From such authors as Willa A. Cather, Kate Chopin, Gail Godwin and many many more, we learn a bit about the author and some of their works. With great recommendations and wonderful pictures of featured drinks, makes me want to try them!... This little book is definitely a keeper for the book lover and drink afficianado!! I received this book for review and was not monetarily compensated for said review.
