Wolfing down THE DEAD HUSBAND COOKBOOK by Danielle Valentine in one sitting. Thanks so much @mirandajewess.bsky.social for the ARC!

A red book cover showing a woman's hand with black nail polish squeezing raw tomatoes until the juice comes out. The title is The Dead Husband Cookbook by Danielle Valentine, and I've styled the book on my red vinyl kitchen table with a huge knife and a bowl of tomato and bread soup.
