Julie and Julia, A Year of Cooking Dangerously by Julie Powell is a frank, endearing memoir of Julie Powell's year of making every recipe in Julia Child's tome Mastering the Art of French Cooking, Volume I.

I truly enjoyed this book! I found it incredibly honest and just plain fun to read. I remember hearing about the book last year, I believe, before the movie buzz began. I saw the film earlier this week and absolutely LOVED it.

Highly recommended for adults; the language is a bit rough for younger folks.
