“Earnest and energetic . . . Howard is like a good friend sitting in the kitchen and regaling you with pithy anecdotes. Listeners will laugh and relate to her jokes about carbs, as well as her romantic disappointments. Her frank style is disarming as she describes struggling with anorexia alongside a love of cooking. For those who enjoy memoirs, this is a deeper look at how food connects us yet can also divide people from healthy feelings of self-esteem . . . a quick, enjoyable listen.” –AudioFile Magazine, Earphones Award Winner

“Howard recounts her struggles to have a baby with a refreshing candidness that inspires hope, even when recalling her most desperate moments. Readers will fall in love with Howard’s astute perspective on food, love, and the richness both bring to life.” —Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“Hannah Howard’s food writing is always so delicious, joyful, and a delight to read. In Plenty she also writes beautifully about women she admires, who work in all different aspects of the food world, from a hip Brooklyn coffee house to a Vermont goat farm, to a French barge. These tales of friendship and great meals are woven together with the story of her own journey towards motherhood. It’s a reminder to all of us that true nourishment, and fulfillment, comes when women support one another, and empower each other to take up all the space we need in the world.” —Virginia Sole-Smith, author of The Eating Instinct
