"'What are you doing?' I asked him. And he answered me with a question in turn.

For this round of Cook the Books, we're reading something that I probably would have never picked up myself, The Shape of Water by Andrea Camilleri, as picked by Rachel. This is the first novel in a series of Inspector Montalbano mysteries. Now, it has all the makings of something I would gravitate towards. The tagline on the cover reads "a novel of food, wine and homicide in small town Sicily". That in itself got me excited to start turning the pages.
