Evertaster (A book I fell in love with!)

After long hours of search on Amazon, I found "Evertaster". I had really low expectations for the book, but then I realized that I was wrong! This is one of the best books I've ever read in my life and I think that this is one of the best novels for children and teens.

"Evertaster", by Adam Glendon Sidwell, is the story of 11 year old Guster Johnsonville, a boy that finds almost all food prepared by her mother disgusting. After a visit to a french patisserie prepared by her mom (along with Guster's siblings) as the result of Guster's mom's frustration. At the patisserie, some strange events happen. Events that will change Guster's life and that will take the whole Johnsonville into an amazing journey all around the world, in search for a mystical recipe for "The Gastronomy of Peace".

This book has lots of factors that I found quite enjoyable: there was adventure, action, drama, humor... AND IT MADE ME REAAAAL HUNGRY! Adam Glendon Sidwell was really creative and he made a very interesting story that will entertain readers of all ages.

The characters have great personalities, we get to explore the opposite sides of them and... honestly, I fell in love with the characters. Mariah: a geeky smart girl that's encharged of all the research, Zeke: an annoying old sibling that just enjoys bothering Guster and calls him mean nicknames, and Henry Jr: the baby of the family. On their way they travel to many places, like Africa, Norway, Perú... and they make friends... and some enemies too!

I guess my favorite characters were Guster, Mariah, and Felicity Casa: a professional cook that owns a television program which Guster's mom is a huge fan of. Felicity Casa makes many types of things in her shows to help out housewives. Adam sure knew how to place the characters in their stories... I would speak more of Felicity Casa but I just don't want to ruin the book for other readers! LOL :)

All the descriptions of the food made me real hungry. They made my mouth water. I really felt like I was actually eating the ingredients for the Gastronomy of Peace, or just some other dish mentioned in the book. This is a book that will make you real hungry! *short minor spoiler* In one of the final scenes, when Guster tastes the Recipe, I really felt like I was with Guster too! *end of spoilers*

My favorite scenes in the book? Hmmph... that's just a tie between the Africa and Norway scene. I loved them both! I laughed many times with this book, it's just too humorous and a mixture of lots of feelings. Adam Glendon Sidwell is a new author to have on the watch! I expect more interesting novels and books form him, and yes, THERE WILL BE A SEQUEL FOR EVERTASTER!

This is a book that's worth reading, besides, it's cover was amazing, it was one of the things that attracted me to the book. I regret having the lowest expectations for this book because it was really great. This is a book for children, teens, and adults! Everybody will love the book and fall in love with the character's amazing personalities.

Give it a try, because it's really awesome! ;)

An excellent job, I give it five cookies.
