A Reese's Book Club Pick. Sibling rivalry, second chances, and just who has the best fried chicken in Kansas. A reality TV restaurant competition sends two families straight out of the frying pan and into the fire.
Nobody knows the humour and pathos of complicated family relationships better than KJ. Dell'Antonia, which is why this story about sisters and fried chicken and reality TV is such a satisfying read. It's like the comfort-food of novels: warm, memorable, and wholly original. I loved it * Laura Zigman, author of SEPARATION ANXIETY *
Dell'Antonia writes convincingly and sympathetically about complicated family relationships, giving Mae and Amanda each relatable flaws. The Food Wars scenes are a fun peek behind the curtain of the reality TV world, and the small-town warmth of Merinac is comfortingly quirky. A charming and satisfying story about family bonds that will make meat eaters everywhere crave fried chicken. * Kirkus *
A really funny, touching, sweet book... if you have family dynamics that remind you of this you're probably going to love this book. A charming, hilarious, feel-good story about the kind of bonds & rivalries only sisters can share. * Reese Witherspoon *
