It was recommended to me and it might be one of my favorite books. It's a pirate adventure novel where a cook gets captured by a notorius pirate Hannah Mabbot. She makes him cook elaborate dishes for her using scarce ingredients available on the ship. There is romance, and descriptions of preparation of dishes, which don't usually interest me, but the writing is so eloquent and creative that I loved even those parts. On top of that the humor is great, I laughed quite a few times reading the book. Overall, an enchanting novel that is not as popular as it should be.
