Truly surprised by how much I enjoyed this book! Very educational without being stuffy, easy to read, and just plain fun.
I was hooked from the very first pages, when the author started with a cheese that is produced within a couple of miles of my wife's home farm in Wisconsin. Every time we visit family back there, we pack a cooler with delicious local cheeses to bring back to Seattle. (Hot tip: no matter what anyone says, the best cheese is ALWAYS from Wisconsin).
There is just so much information on cheese in this book that I will be returning to it again and again for reference. Besides a lifetime of different cheeses to try, the little tidbits about the cheeses are very good to know.… (mais)

I received an advance copy vis NetGalley.

What a delightful homage to fromage! Renowned cheese influencer Darlington (aka Madame Fromage) has created a delightful resource for people with a vast range of familiarity with the world of artisan cheese. I've read a lot of cheese books, and some tend to feel basic and redundant to me at this point. Darlington delivers fresh spins to the topic by including mini interviews and insights from cheese professionals around the world, the text supported by fun, drool-inducing illustrations throughout. (This is definitely a book that needs to be read in an ebook format that supports the full-color layouts or in old-fashioned print form.) There is information and recommendations galore for cheeses of all kinds, plus pairings of preserves or pickles or alcohol or other beverages. The back of the book lists opportunities for more reading and real-life cheese adventuring. I learned many new things! I definitely want this book in print for my cheese reference shelf.… (mais)

Interesting idea. Though I think the parents end up being hypocrites.

Gender-bendy, campy, and fun.
