Probably going to pre-order this.

I really enjoy Ella’s voice and loved the Absolute Best Tests she did on Food52 back in the day.

Thanks so much for posting about Ella Quittner’s book. I was just now able to place a hold on it (when it comes out in late February) from our local regional library network, and I am the 8th person on the waiting list, with 5 copies on order. Meaning I won’t have to wait until summer to be able to check it out!
