Haiku Book Reviews: February

The Curse of the Pharoahs by Elizabeth Peters (audiobook)

Valley of the Kings,
Emersons set forth to dig;
rumors of curses.

Ratio: The Simple Codes Behind the Craft of Everyday Cooking by Michael Ruhlman

Simple numbers show:
how chefs take ingredients
and give us cuisine.

Dixie City Jam by James Lee Burke (audiobook)

Thoughtful and slow tale
of New Orleans and Nazis:
gumbo of suspense.

The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson

Long exposition,
Jekyll's friends worry, as Hyde
takes control; tragic.

The Blue Zones by Dan Buettner

Four groups of people,
Living long and happy lives,
what are their secrets?
