What is a good food related fiction book for a book club?

Our theme is "Hungry for More" and we plan to read one cook book and one fiction book. Thing is, we can't think of any fiction book that is really good and has to do with food. Any recommendations?What is a good food related fiction book for a book club?
Bread alone by Judith R. Hendricks.
The Truth About Forever by Sara Dessen would be good. It's a love story, but she meets the people because they run a catering business, and food is in the book a lot.What is a good food related fiction book for a book club?
'Chocolat' by Joanne Harris is an excellent fiction book about food.
Try Kitchen Confidential by Anthony Bourdain. It's not fiction but it reads like it. A hoot and a half plus you actually learn things about cooking and restaurants and will give you guys something to talk about for sure.

The Shape of Water by Andrea Camilleri is one of a series of detective books set in Italy centering around cynical Inspector Salvo Montalbano who approaches solving crimes by way of humor and a good meal.

Interesting Fiction Books about Food:

Models Don't Eat Chocolate Cookies by Erin Dionne

How to Eat Fried Worms by Thomas Rockwell



These cookbooks would be good for a Book Club because they include stories with the recipes:

Padma Lakshmi's Tangy Tart Hot %26amp; Sweet

The Princess and the Frog: Tiana's Cookbook
