52 Shabbats provides over 50 recipes, while incorporating information on Jewish peoples from around the world and how food plays a role in their varied cultures. Honestly, if you weren't hungry when you started looking at this cookbook, you will be after. I liked how each primary recipe included extra recipes to make a full Shabbat night menu (appetizers, deserts, etc). The recipes seemed easy enough to follow and some are extremely unique and not what I would have immediately guessed would be included for each season.
Thanks to The Collective Book Studio and NetGalley for an eARC of this cookbook for an honest review.

I absolutely loved reading through this book and can't wait to try the recipes!
There's a nice little history of Jewish cuisine to get rolling, and it's quite short, nothing too heavy, providing some context for readers who aren't so familiar with Jewish food.
It features Shabbat recipes and menu ideas from around the world, but the author uses ingredients that are readily accessible to most modern home cooks. She also does a lot of mashups that become interesting and unique concepts and makes what could be foreign recipes more palatable for the Wester foodie.
It has a beautiful, easy-to-read layout with suggested menus for each recipe and a well-rounded description of the dish.
There are some beautiful pictures, but not all of the recipes have pictures, and the pictures aren't necessarily next to the recipes.
Thank you to NetGalley, The Collective Book Studio, and Faith Kramer for an advanced copy for review.
