"Touchy-feely chicklit"

Ah, I love this review from petite treat on Amazon.

It's been done before
I had come across the gluten free girl's blog and was intrigued by her recipes. It's easy to skip the fluff in her blog, just use the scroll button and it doesn't cost you any money. The book is another story. Although it's easy to skip the fluff with a page turn, I'm left wondering where all the recipes are? There are some, yes, but I was hoping for something the tried and true recipes of someone who endured all the hardships of gluten free, a self proclaimed foodie, married to "The Chef" who apparently owned a gluten free restaurant.

The book is very touchy feely, more of a chicklit fantasy novel of how magical her life is than anything else.

Oh, petite treat. The book is not about recipes, silly, it's about Shauna and how her life is full of the loveliest love that ever loved.

Chow.com asks, If any of your favorite food bloggers now have books, have you noticed changes on their sites, for better or worse? and uses Gluten-Free Girl as a specific example.

I think that Gluten-Free Girl's writing HAS changed, unfortunately. I was hoping that she'd grow and develop her own style... but she just seems to be parroting other famous food bloggers and cookbook writers. She had a lot of room to grow when she started out, and in my opinion she's gotten worse.
