Review-
Thumbs up-
●The most astonishing thing about the author's poetry is, it is written in a way which so lucid yet alluring that every soul reading it could understand the meaning it conveys.
●The author made a promise to the readers at the beginning of the book that it has a poetry for everyone, literally everyone, and I'm happy to announce that she kept her promise. If you are a Homo sapiens sapiens, inhabiting this planet, Earth, there is a poetry for you in her book.
●The author takes her love for cheese to a whole new level. It was such a brilliant yet fresh idea to dedicate a book to cheese, from naming it Turophile to penning her thoughts about cheese. The real bummer comes when you delve into her poetry, yup you guessed it. Every poetry begins with the name of a specific type of cheese or sometimes simply with food having cheese in it. Loving something is different, but the author's dedication towards her cheese is something out worldly.
Thumbs down-
◆Well to be honest I couldn't find a thumbs down, but I would be a daft if I didn't point out that, that the book could have been more structured if there was a division in between the poetry like-- love, or hate. But this thing could be forgiven and forgotten when you have so much cheesy poetry to deal with!!!
Personal Views-
If you can say poetry is your true love I would suggest you to explore this cheesy affair atleast once in your life because, as Shalini suggests she has poetry in her veins. If you say that poetry is not your cup of chai, then all the better reason to read it, because there is one for you too.
