About this listen
Making the Cut is the flagship show on the FoodieTV network, giving recent high school graduates a chance to win a scholarship to a prestigious culinary school. Midori is from San Francisco, and grew up in a family that owns a restaurant. All she ever wanted to do was cook, but in Japanese culture, women are relegated to hostess and management roles. Nicole is from Denver, the child of a broken home who's been forced to grow up way too soon. She's been poor her entire life, and that prize package is impossibly valuable to her. These two girls become friends despite their cultural differences, and together with six more challengers, will be competing in front of the cameras. With a $10,000 prize and that incredible scholarship at stake, can their friendship survive the rigors of reality television?

Two teenage girls find themselves entering a tv cooking competition for very different reasons but both with an eye on the prise. Midori's family own there own restaurant but the Japanese culture she was brought up means she was only ever allowed to play hostess. If her three brothers hadn't snuck her into the kitchen late at night to teacher she would never have found her passion. Can she win the prise and show her parents that she is just as good as any man. Nicole is working in a restaurant to help her single mom look after her younger sister. Winning the $10,000 prize and a scholarship to a prestigious New York culinary school would mean she wouldn't have to worry about where her next meal is coming from and she the fat kid of the school could make something of herself. The pair will not only have to beat each other but six other contestants to win. Friendships will be formed but can they out last the heat from the kitchen?
I liked the narrator for this book, she sounded meak for the downtrodden Midori and tough and sassy for Nicole.
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
