I hated this book. Granted, I was 16 when I read it, but I've really never hated a book for school as much as I hated the Great Gatsby. I even liked the Scarlet Letter for crying out loud, but I could NOT get into Great Gatsby. Maybe the symbolism just went over my head or I couldn't stop judging the hell out of all the characters. I don't know. Maybe I should reread it now, as a smarter, more educated adult, but I probably never will. Even still, this remains my least favorite book of all time (Gone Girl comes in a close second.)

Absolutely horrifying. I seriously hated this. The idea of waking up as a giant gross beetle just freaked me out. I'm sure there was a ton of great literary devices and symbolism in there, but 16 year old me was too weirded out by the descriptions of life as a beetle to notice.

Loved the rosemary and white bean hummus! Also a big fan of the sweet potato / black eyed pea recipe; I make this all the time now!

Not a very big fan of the summer squash soup though.
