I have cooked a bit from Season and enjoyed it. It reminds me of @Suvir Saran's American Masala in that both feature many Western recipes, given a twist with Indian flavors.

I've been reading Season from the library. It is definitively worth a purchase.

This is quite a nice book. The Red Truck Bakery is near "back home" for me and their baking is good enough for me to have sought out a hard copy of this book. Baking from the recipes in the book has not disappointed.

The Kindle version of Odette William's book Simple Cake has been at $2.99 for a while on amazon.com (sadly, not on amazon.ca)

The recipes are indeed simple although she gives a lot of variations for most of the recipes.

It's been the book of the month for the Food52 baking cookbook club and has been very well received. I made the Cinnamon Spice Cake (posted over here) and was very pleased with the result.

How can one pass up another ramen book? Particularly what looks like a comprehensive and well written ramen book. And when one has a $1.00 Kindle credit.
