My favorite New Cookbook is Pass the Plate by Carolina Gelen! (www.carolinagelen.com) I love how her Yellow Cover pops on my bookshelf - well, next to any color - now that’s easy to find. Plus her recipes aren’t intimidating and she seems so fun and positive, so goodness all around.

Also a great cookbook and Carolina is as fun and positive as you say! Will definitely include in next roundup.

How on earth does shelving cookbooks by colour make things easy? Surely they should be shelved by category or author or some other category that makes sense?

Categories can get complicated and a lot of cookbooks can fit in a few. We find it easier to search the cover online and then look in the right colour area. Works for us...

Pretty sure that they are imposing a color classification on the books. Those are not the actual covers.

Thank you for this weeks post, and amongst the new books you listed I had bought Nicola Lamb’s book Sift for a couple of our grandchildren. It is very tempting to continue to purchase new books, but I don’t entertain as much these days, dining out with friends and our children do most of the catering, BUT I do have my eye on a couple, even if it is just to support the people involved.

I’d love to see these beautiful books in the limelight of a Fribe Form Book Light. So inspiring to any kitchen or dining interior. Be inspired at fribeform.com
