This is an interesting concept for a book. It contains many different stories, but all related to the champagne. I'm glad you loved it, but I'm not convinced quite yet. I think I would have to give it a try for myself to see if I would like it or not. Thanks for your review!

A great, jocular review, as if permeated with the spirit of the champagne the reviewed book talks about.
Readers are warned of the presumable difficulties, pertaining to the culture of champagne and of the food that brings the best in it, difficulties that someone curious enough of the topic and willing to educate themselves will gladly assume.

This is a collection of ten short stories each containing champagne in their theme. The tales are as rich and varied as the vintages of the champagne. This is an unique and flavorful idea. Congratulations to the author for being chosen as BOTD. This was a very well-written review. I liked your touches of humor. Thanks to the reviewer for your excellent review.

It is an unusual plot but nonetheless very intriguing. A non-drinker, light or otherwise, I am tempted to sample these wines through this interesting book. Congrats!

I won't be reading this, I do not drink alcohol and I have no clue what I was reading.

Great review. I lovebirds how the author delicately paired wine with his books. I love wine and a little bit of spicy suspense is always good. I can’t wait to sit with a glass of wine and dive into this book.

The warning at the end is a great touch to an already amazing review! I'm not a fan of champagne, but reading good-quality and original short stories sounds interesting.

This looks like an interesting collection of stories. I love the way you wrote your review. It does justice to the author's profession and the book's title.

It's so original to mix two arts that we rarely associate together!
I think the different topics and the vast array of characters make this a book that almost anyone can enjoy, obviously with the exceptions you pointed out.
You really made the most of the wine topic and wrote a very compelling review. Thank you!

Just what I was looking for! Intriguing and very enticing storyline with great attention to details. I honestly never read anything with this kinda structure and believe would be enormously entertained by novelty of it all)

Wow!! Such a poetic review. I needed an online dictionary to understand some words

. Personally, I'm not a champagne connoisseur( word inspired by your review), but I definitely like the premise of the book. Its different nhst like your review. I sampled the first chapter of the book and I really enjoyed what I read. Thank you for the wonderful review.

This is a creative review on a collection of short stories that all have a common theme of champagne. Not my type of reading, but well-written from what I can tell.

Not sure I'm going to be reading this book, but I enjoyed your clever and interesting review!

This is probably the sexiest review I've read on here. Not that the content was in any way sexual, I just liked the way you described the stories and kept with the theme of the book of relating them to fine champagne. Great review!
