Beschreibung
Ever since she got pregnant, 17-year-old Emoni's life has been about making tough decisions. Keeping her head down at school, trying not to get caught up with new boy Malachi. The one place she can let everything go is in the kitchen, where she has magical hands. Emoni wants to be a chef more than anything, but she knows it's pointless to pursue the impossible. There are rules she has to play by. And yet, once she starts cooking, and gets that fire on high, she sees that her drive to feed will feed her soul and dreams too. And anything is possible. From the winner of the National Book Award and Cilip Carnegie Medal.
