Kitchens of the Great Midwest by J. Ryan Stradal (2015) is my third read by this author. To the best of my knowledge I have now read all of his books (3).
I read these books out of order. The middle book was assigned for one of my book groups. Then I read the latest. I read the original/first book last.
All three books had strong female characters and a good female “voice”. These were written by a male author.
This book, Kitchens of the Great Midwest, had none of the confusion of the first two books. There were a lot of characters, but they were clear and wrapped up by the end. Thank heavens, the timeline was much more linear, so the book was not confusing.
I enjoyed it. I recommended it to my husband.
I maintain accounts on GoodReads and StoryGraph, thanks to youngest getting me organized.
