Having read the first book, Good Things, I was looking forward to this sequel. I was not disappointed. I do agree a bit with other reviewers here that some of what happens is so unbelievable, and would never occur that way in real life. That being said, I still enjoyed it a great deal - after all it's fiction, right? I continue to like the characters, and hope that her next book will include them in it! This book is the sequel to Good Things and was just as charming. I definitely enjoy books that weave in any storyline around food/cooking/entertaining and this is no exception. I'm so glad to have discovered Mia King- I think she is a fantastic writer, good stories that are essentially a "romance" and perhaps a dash of "chick lit" but it feels several steps above that. The story line seems REAL. I love a good chick lit book but sometimes the story can get so outrageous it can be insulting to one's intelligence. I definitely LOVE Mia King, as a nice light but addicting read with real characters - characters that could easily be plucked out of my own life.
What do You think about Table Manners (2009)?
I just didn't feel this one. There was no atmosphere and I didn't like the characters at all.

This book was pretty much meaningless. But it was fun and nice.
