Gotta Have It Factor: 11 outta 10

Seriously, I have never seen so much buzz about a vegan cookbook before, the thought, the idea the mere mention of this book sends vegans into uncontrollable fits of joy and happiness. Yeah, it's hard to get vegans to agree on anything (politics, food, honey, etc.) but word around the stove is that vegans are in a hand-holding cumbaya campfire singing tizzy over this one.

And. Well.

It's easy to see why - The Post Punk Kitchen's Isa Chandra Moscowitz & Terry Hope Romero are veganism's kick-ass answer and antithesis to all things omnivore. Sorry Sarah Kramer, there's some new queens of the Herbivorous throne.

My Sweet Vegan
Publication Date: November 2, 2007
Gotta Have It Factor: 8 outta 10

Knitter extraordinare, part conscious-cooking blogger at the Bittersweet Blog and amazing photographer Hannah Kaminsky's new book looks too sweet to pass up! You can rest assured that though this book will probably keep you in dentist bills, it will definitely keep your sweet tooth satisfied - and well, that's always good enough for me.

From the looks of things, author Susan Obrien already has slew of gluten-free cookbooks under her arm, this though, would be her first vegan foray in the field.

I'm a gluten free vegan and I didn't know about this book, so thanks for the heads-up!
