Shelf Awareness
Pennie Clark Ianniciello, Costco's book buyer, has chosen Delicious!: A Novel by Ruth Reichl (Random House, US$27) as her pick of the month for May. In Costco Connection, which goes to many of the warehouse club's members, she wrote:"Dinner has always been a time to talk about the day, current events and favorite books. Reading has a similar communal feel, whether I buy a book as a gift or talk about my favorite titles with Connection readers and other friends. So, as a fan of good food and a good read, I believe Ruth Reichl's Delicious! is an ideal pick.
