Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Like others who have already posted their review, I too own all of Ina's cookbooks so I eagerly await her new ones. 'Make It Ahead' is a major disappointment. It reminds me of long time authors who merely churn out another novel because it is expected of them, so they use other writers to help do the research and writing. The recipes seem stale and a rehash of many others she has done over the years. The 'make ahead' part is only a minor theme of the book, one or two sentences tucked at the bottom of some of the pages. I have made one recipe from the book, Salty Cranberry oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, and was disappointed by the taste. Sadly I will not be buying any more of Ina's books.
