Aimee Bender (THE GIRL IN THE FLAMMABLE SKIRT) has proven herself adept at crafting unforgettable characters who are utterly normal except for one extraordinary trait, and Rose Edelstein may be her most sincere and spellbinding creation yet. On her ninth birthday, Rose makes a fascinating and frightening discovery when she sinks her teeth into a piece of homemade lemon cake and realizes that she can taste the distinct flavor of her mother`s melancholia baked into the batter. Soon, Rose realizes that whatever she eats carries the emotional essence of the person who made it, so she switches to a dangerous diet of junk food to avoid ingesting these unwanted feelings. But as she gets older, Rose begins to use her magical palate more liberally to learn more about the unseen people producing the food she eats, and to try to heal the hidden hurt which is dividing her very unusual family.
