Why read it?

1 author picked All Four Stars as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I love the tension of worrying that their secret identity might get found out. In this series, the main character’s secret identity is that she’s an accomplished and influential restaurant critic and no one knows, not even her parents.
