English speaking room

Hello, girls! Haven't been here for ages You see looking through English magazines I came across a lovely story by Michele Roberts. The introduction attracted me. Now you'll understand why.

"I used to read a cookery book at night, after my husband had fallen asleep, savouring its poetry, its precise vocabulary. Recipes were indeed like poems, compact, with carefully chosen words..."

Great! To feel poetry in a cookery book! I have never thought why I like reading the books, but they really attract me, the language first of all.
