I didn't realise when I requested this that it was only a sampler. What I was given for review was only 17 pages of a 288 page book.

There are some lovely full color pictures in the front including one of a bundt cake that drew my attention, then an introduction that explains that the author is British of Bangladeshi descent and what food means to her.

Only two recipes made it into the sample; Cheese Scones with Chive Butter and a divine looking Eton Mess Cheesecake.

The contents didn't list other recipes, so this is all I have to go on. It's a shame a recipe index was not included as the mixture of British and Bangladeshi influences intrigued me enough to request the book for review. Sadly, I don't feel I can make a judgement from the few pages and two recipes provided. It looks nice, though.

Interesting sample of Nadiya's upcoming recipe book. I'm a bit of a sucker when it comes to a good cheese scone so I was intrigued to see how she would change a classic recipe.

Clear and easy to read with Nadiya's own unique charm. Should be a hit in gifting season!

I am a sucker for cookery books and, like many, really warmed to Nadiya Hussain's personality on The Great British bake off. I was excited therefore to receive the sample of this book from the publisher. I had never used an e-cookery book before as I am very keen on the photos in cookery books which I was not sure would translate well and I also like to make my own notes on recipes. I received a pdf of a sample of the book and find the photos have translated wel to an electronic format. I enjoyed reading Nadiya's introduction and the two sample recipes were well written and illustrated. I will probably buy the book but for recipe books will stick to the hard copy rather than the e-book. Part of the enjoyment of recipe books for myself and my family is the handwritten notes accompanying the recipes.

The sampler sent contains only two recipes so it makes it hard to comment on the content extensively. I like the use of photos and layouts to see what is being cooked. Helpfully I had seen both of these recipes cooked on Nadiya's TV show, but I found the recipes to be quite wordy. This becomes problematic when you want to quickly skim read to see what is needed. I found her whimsical introduction lovely and it cements my opinions of her. I think this would definitely be a book I would look to purchase in the future, and I just hope that the rest of the recipes are inspiring and the book contains lots of photos - as this definitely helps!

There was only 17 pages in it and it tells you a bit about her and why she stared cooking,there was two recipes in and they looked good,maybe the full book will be ok,there is pictures in that helps so you know what they should look like.

Sorry. Unable to download this sampler after several attempts, so not possible to review.

I love Nadiya;s food - it so fresh and inspiring. The two recipes in this sampler are the cheese scones with chive butter and eton mess cheesecake. I can't wait to try them. I'm looking forward to watching the rest of the series on TV and would consider buying this book to supplement my cookery book obsession.

I am not sure how to review a sampler.... it looks good I guess? I want to read it further? Food (the two recipes) look yummy? Nice pictures?

The book looks nice enough, but the sampler is way to short to really judge this book. A lot of nice fotos but way too few recipies to know how useful it is.

Nadiya Hussain is an accomplished cook that has a story to tell about how she grew up in immigrant's environment which shaped her food choices and style of cooking. The two recipes that I had the chance to check looked yummy. Great photographs.

Sampler provided by the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

Even though it was a sampler and there were only 2 recipes, I know I am going to purchase the book when it comes out. I like the format and layout: easy to follow instructions, pictures of the finished dish and the stories that accompanied each recipe.

Fabulous sampler. Can't wait to read the whole thing!

Absolutely adored the two episodes of the programme that the BBC have shown, and the Scones and cheesecake recipes were the perfect ones to include in the sampler because I am dying to try them both out. If the rest of the recipes are as simple as the ones shown already Nadiya is onto a winner.

Different recipes with easy to follow instructions. Well presented

Looks like it will be a great cookbook!! I cannot wait for it, it will definitely be added to my collection. Food looks delicious.

Sold! If all the recipes are as simple and as tasty as the cheese scones I just whipped up, then I can't wait to work my way through this.

Beautiful book with some gorgeous looking recipes - can't wait to give them a try!

Was unable to download the sampler will have to buy the paper book instead I think she is fabulous so I might well do that.

Thanks for this. I'm going to buy the complete book!

Unable to open the sampler so can't leave a review
