 The Magnificent Lives of Marjorie Post

by Allison Pataki

As the Adult Services Manager at the Columbiana Public Library, I am tasked to pick books for our Afternoon Book Club. One patron suggested this read, thanks Kara, and I started reading it that night. This book was really hard to put down and I finished it in under 3 days. 
The book is a historical fiction piece on the life of Majorie Post. Post was the only daughter of the founder of Post Cereals, C.W. Post. The author Allison Pataki has created a work of fiction with fusing historical events of Marjorie Post's life. From her growing up in Battle Creek, Michigan where her father enters the sanitarium of Dr. Kellogg to gain his health back and embarks on a journey with her father in creating breakfast cereal which would become the foundation of his empire.
