Resep Cinta, a novel by Primadonna Angela

Ask Cinnamon Cherry testing the foods—before you finished your request, she asks another plates. Ask Cherry cooking—before you finished your sentences, she asks a favor.


But everything’s change when Cherry meets Basil.

Handsome and charming Basil, wants cooking expert girlfriend. It’s impossible Cherry refused Basil’s request to make him delicious cuisines.

Cherry who don’t wanna go to kitchen before, now meets the ingredients and foodstuffs. With simple recipes (but delicious) from her parents, Cherry tries to win Basil’s heart.


Her difficult struggles—because there is Maya Renggo who’s have a crush on Basil. Beautiful, the heiress of famous restaurants and culinary genious Maya. Before Cherry able to think this new threat, Maya challenge her to get Basil with cooking competition.



This book is full of delicious recipes—I’m hungry now! At the end of each chapter, she gave her family’s recipes. Her writing style reminds me of Meg Cabot with Princess Diaries series. Resep Cinta is cheerful and funny—teens characteristics, but too many detail of Cherry’s feelings (of course it does, it tells from first person point of view, stupid me!). So the story seems too slow to me. And it used hyperbols technic.

The book is good but too thin. I’m still enjoying the story, then it reach the ending. And I hate Basil. Gorgeous and perfect but he is a recipes thief. It’s true: Don’t judge a book by its cover. But it doesn’t affect to Divo. From the beginning of the book, Cherry knows him well. I have to try the recipes there. It looks like very, very delicious. Yummy!
