Review:

Soooooo cute! I knew I was going to love this one as soon as I saw the cover, but omg, it was even better than I expected. I love that every character had a cheese name. I also love how, in the end, they both became their true selves. It was so nice to see that! The art is gorgeous, too. I loved all the side characters and the female empowerment subplot. Such a good graphic novel!

Trigger Warnings:
misogyny

Synopsis From Book:

Lady Camembert wants to live life on her own terms, without marriage. Well, without marrying a man, that is. But the law of the land is that women cannot inherit. So when her father passes away, she does the only thing she can: She disguises herself as a man and moves to the capital city of the Kingdom of Fromage to start over as Count Camembert. But it’s hard to keep a low profile when the beautiful Princess Brie, with her fierce activism and great sense of fashion, catches her attention. Camembert can’t resist getting to know the princess, but as the two grow closer, will she able to keep her secret?
