I didn't really enjoy Monica Ali's third novel, In the Kitchen. I thought her writing was very good but the plot didn't get me hooked and the characters didn't get me going either. I love the way she talks about restaurant life and working in a kitchen but overall it was just sort of bland for me.
I really had to struggle to finish this book. The writing and descriptions are extremely well done, but I am not a descriptive type person. I just wished the book had moved quicker and there wasn't so much detail.
