I like how you can choose how long the cooking time you have for many of the recipes and that some only require a kettle: that would be perfect for university students in residence trying to save money on a food plan. So into this book already - the recipes all look deliciously tempting and the photography is vivid and engaging. However some recipes are not written well (pavlova, but still delicious), or have the feel of being scaled down from a larger batch or converted due to unusual measurements (5 Tbsp, 1/3 cup + 1 Tbsp etc) making prep time longer/more cleanup. For example, this is the sequence for Kimchee Pancakes with Sriracha Bacon: first an introduction (there is one for each recipe), then a list of ingredients for the bacon, then instructions for mixing a dipping sauce, instructions for mixing the pancakes, how to make it vegan (omit bacon and eggs), cooking time, ingredients for the dipping sauce, ingredients for the pancakes, instructions for cooking the pancakes, instructions for cooking the bacon, instructions for cooking eggs (note that the eggs are listed with the pancake ingredients, so it looks like they are part of the batter), assembly instructions. Lots of tasty recipes- and lots of them were vegetarian/vegan, which I will be excited to check out some day when I actually have the energy to cook real food.
