  Let’s chat about our favorite foodie characters.

Julie Review Avatar Julie:

I think we absolutely have to start with Julie from [easyazon_link identifier=”031604251X” locale=”US” tag=”chapbrea05-20″]Julie and Julia: My Year of Cooking Dangerously[/easyazon_link]. There is nothing more foodie than spending a year working through your favorite cookbook while saving your life.

Then there’s Nastya from [easyazon_link identifier=”1476730946″ locale=”US” tag=”chapbrea05-20″]Sea of Tranquility[/easyazon_link] (one of our favorite YA novels here) with creation of cakes at Sunday dinner.

Also, check out Flavorwire’s recs for 50 Essential Novels for Foodies.

Goldy from the [easyazon_link identifier=”0553584707″ locale=”US” tag=”chapbrea05-20″]Goldy Bear Culinary Mysteries[/easyazon_link] series by Diane Mott Davidson. She’s a caterer who solves murders. Right up my ally!

Theo from the [easyazon_link identifier=”B002CMP96E” locale=”US” tag=”chapbrea05-20″]Tea Shop Mystery series[/easyazon_link] by Laura Childs. As a tea drinker, this is one tea shop that I would want to hang out in, despite all the murders!

[easyazon_link identifier=”B00FJFAUHO” locale=”US” tag=”chapbrea05-20″]The Cupcake Club series[/easyazon_link] by Donna Kauffman is a great dessert after all those murders. Fluffy frosting and swoony romance in a cupcake shop.

  1. The two books I thought of right away were:

    Hassan from “The Hundred Foot Journey.” Food is a huge part of this book, as it’s about chefs and restaurants. (I didn’t love the book, but it’s definitely a “foodie” book.)

    Also, Minka from “The Storyteller” by Jodi Picoult. She is a baker and there’s a recipe for her rolls at the back of the book. I haven’t made it yet, but I’m planning on it.
