The Language of Baklava: A Memoir by Diana Abu-Jaber

4.0

This was pretty good. I read it for my Read Around the World challenge for Jordan. It includes multiple recipes. I really enjoyed the writing, and found that I was able to relate to a lot of the author’s stories despite our very different circumstances. Very universal themes of wanting to find your identity while growing up, of conflict within family, longing for a home you’ve left.
