~BookBub.com
Great books, bloggers, and recipes meet in this fresh and unique cookbook that helps you experience books, not just read them.
Books were selected from the author’s book review blog and paired with delectable recipes like “Fairy Touched Calico Brownies” from the Fablehaven series by Brandon Mull, “7-Day Layer Dip” from Lauren Oliver’s Before I Fall, and “I Hate Chocolate Cake” from Amanda Hocking’s Switched.
Mouthwatering photos complement every recipe.
The 2012 Book Blogger’s Cookbook is now available and includes a foreword by David Farland, award winning, New York Times Bestselling author.
The 2011 Book Blogger’s Cookbook includes a foreword by Amanda Hocking, author of the USA Today Bestselling Trylle Trilogy and showcases over seventy reviews with links to book review blogs and author websites.
"A surprisingly large number of recipes from this collection caught my attention. Even better each one I tried out turned out great. The favorite recipe was the Fablehaven Mint Brownies. The recipe turned out great the very first time and had an appropriate amount of mint flavor. I definitely recommend downloading this unusual collection. You'll get access to recipes worthy of repeat usage and might even find some interesting new reads if you're lucky."
~Heidi Sue Roth, Midwest Book Review
**If you love young adult books, you'll love the cookbook***
Whether you're a food lover, an avid reader or a book blogger, there’s something for you in The 2011 Book Blogger’s Cookbook.
The 2011 Book Blogger Cookbook The Book Blogger Cookbook 1 edition by Christy Dorrity Amanda Hocking Cookbooks Food Wine eBooks
One reviewer calls the book neither fish nor fowl. While it's true, consider the world of cookbooks. For an active, connected cook it's normal to find only a couple of recipes jewels in each book. The three test-recipes I made from this book (I always make at least three) turned out great the very first time.One of the best compliments from the testers that came in reflected balanced flavors. One of the cookie recipes includes dried cherries, chocolate chips and oatmeal. The potential for fighting tastes exists. Following the recipe to the amounts required no adjustments.
The recipe using brownies and mint is also well balanced. We also enjoyed the gingerbread recipe. And those are just the recipes I made for the first round. I have more on my list--after getting caught up on other books.
Yes, the book may not be all of one thing--but lots of people love to order surf and turf! Combinations are often just the thing.

The 2011 Book Blogger Cookbook The Book Blogger Cookbook 1 edition by Christy Dorrity Amanda Hocking Cookbooks Food Wine eBooks Reviews
Not for me. Although the book's concept was initially appealing, I very quickly realized that the book selections were all young adult, romance or sci-fi/fantasy, genres I'm not interested in. Moving past that, I concentrated on the recipes because I do love to cook. Sadly, the recipes were humdrum and the photos were uninspiring. While the composition of the photos was largely pleasing, many appeared flat and all were ruined by harsh flash lighting or too little lighting.
Important to note that this book which claims to be a cookbook and review of books falls short on both. There are only 20 books "reviewed" here. The reviews are snippets of reviews from other bloggers, (none appearing to be from the author herself, a proclaimed book blogger), and those snippets lead to links online to read the rest of the review, if one desires. Since the recipes correspond with the reviews, what you have here is a cookbook with only 20 recipes.
Overall, this could have been a good cookbook and it gets an extra star for the concept but loses a couple on the execution.
I actually think this cookbook is a very good idea. I know whenever I read a book and they talk about a certain food (over and over)-I start to crave it. And now, foods stated in your favorite books, including Wings, Shiver, Before I Fall, etc.-are compiled in this cookbook. Amanda Hocking starts the cookbook off with a note of endearment to book bloggers, which she has the utmost respect for. A very nice note that makes book blogging all the more worth it-it's nice to know that authors appreciate what we do every day.
Each recipe starts off with a picture of the book, and the book summary. Then comes the recipe with a delicious looking picture and very thorough instructions. And then the book bloggers come into play. A portion of their review is pasted after the recipe about their thoughts on the book. There are several book bloggers mentioned throughout (as well as a link to their blogs). Bloggers including Tynga at Tynga's Reviews, Katie at Mundie Mom Book Reviews, Eleni at La Femme Readers, and many more.
I really loved looking through the cookbook at all the pictures and what book they're pictured in. This is a wonderful cookbook for book bloggers, and readers looking for some great novels to read.
And I couldn't help myself-I had to make the "Frozen Hot Chocolate" from Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater. I've read (and loved) Maggie's book and the Frozen Hot Chocolate was delicious!
Those who regularly visit my blog know that besides reading and travelling cooking and baking is my other passion. In my Sunday Treats on my blog I combine my love of reading with my love of desserts by sharing with you recipes of some of my favourite treats.
So when I heard that someone else did the same and even compiled a blogger's cookbook I was beyond excited and couldn't wait to see Christy Dorrity's selection. And it is wonderful!
The recipes are special and one of a kind enough to stand out of the more usual meals, but simple yet in both the ingredients and preparation as to not discourage you from trying them out at home. I love the creativity behind each of the recipes, how with a simple addition of an ingredient Christy Dorrity turns an ordinary recipe into something fancy and special.
While browsing through the cookbook I kept stopping and exclaiming "Mmm.. I want to try this one!" and "I want to bake this one!". It is a wonderful selection of a variety of creative and fresh recipes and I loved reading at each one of them the connection to the novel which inspired Christy and her personal retelling of the link between food and book.
One of my favourite recipes was the Fear-faire Lavendar Custard which is the treat accompanying Wings by Aprilynne Pike.
I love desserts and custard is a favourite of mine. Be it with apple pie or some other cake, I love it. And as we have a lavendar bush in our garden, I knew I had to try out this tasty and unorthodox combination.
In my opinion this upgraded custard is wonderful to have with pies and cakes just as you would use a normal one (so no need to freeze it, it is just as wonderful as a sauce). If you want to make the experience even more explosive taste-wise, sprinkle the lavendar custard with grilled walnut/hazelnut pieces on top of the cake. I guarantee it will be unforgettable!
Verdict The 2011 Book Blogger's Cookbook is a wonderful and imaginative compilation of extraordinary yet easy to prepare recipes with an explanation of the link to a specific novel Christy Dorrity has read and reviewed. The 2011 Book Blogger's Cookbook is more than a mere cookbook. It contains review bits of 20 bloggers stating what they loved about the featured books. The blogger testaments make you want to read the novels and the photos make your mouth water. Perfect combination! My only complaint it that the 20 recipes aren't nearly enough, I want more! -)
Content 9/10
Cover 10/10 - I am amazed at the professional and top quality look of the cover! It looks both professional and beautiful, and I love how both the reading and the delicious treats are included on it -)
