Can anyone help me find a particular book? I've tried searching on my own. It's a cook book paperback that I picked up in 2011. It's a curry/soup book and it's short height wise, pink or pale blueish cover, many pages thick, wonderful photos. Thank you in advanced fellow book dragons and cooks/chefs.

as a bibliophile and constantly feeding yourselves with stories do you ever feel that you also want to know all the gossip going around just to enjoy it like you enjoy your books ?

Does anyone here look for book Club Editions of rare 1st's?

You know the situation: you want to take a book to read somewhere other than home, but it's a soft cover. Damaging books hurts my heart, but spending more on sturdy books hurts my wallet. This takes aways some nice reading opportunities tho :/ Do you have ideas on how to gently carry soft covers?

I may xpost this a few places, though I'm honestly not sure where it should go . . .

I'd like to find a volume or series that combines scientifically accurate combined anatomical/morphological botanical illustration with fairly comprehensive information in both general terms and from the perspective of growing, culinary, and medicinal uses. Does such a thing exist? Is there a currently accepted . . . canon, I suppose?

The actual practical information is readily available through a plethora of sources, so the root of this particular search is ultimately aesthetic. I want a cool book full of useful information and amazing, accurate illustrations.

Can anyone point me in a slightly less general direction than I've been headed thus far?

I can't be the only one who hates dealing with the dust jacket on a book. So easily destroyed, scuffed, bent, lost. I'd rather remove it from the get go. Anyways, my books look more fancy on my shelf without them haha
