Take Cover! True Blood

If you’ve ever strolled down the aisles of your local library, you’ll know that cookbooks are thriving. A large part of the rising appeal in recent years is due to the abundant, delectable photography, which is sometimes referred to as food porn.

But the appeal doesn’t stop there. Franchises and brands that you don’t typically associate with food are finding ways into the market. And so it is with True Blood: Eats, Drinks, and Bites from Bon Temps.

Library Journal latches onto the visual enticement, noting that it’s “gooey, vivid cover is a perfect reflection of the lurid show it celebrates.” If you like the show, and you like to cook, look for this book at the end of August.
