Review of 'Soy sauce for beginners' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

Selfish, immature girls marries dickish guy. Their marriage crumbles when he cheats. She runs home to Singapore where she displays poor social and communication skills, and rotten judgement. The only reason I gave this 2 stars was because of the setting and what I learned about artisan soy sauce.
