Pass the Monster Meat, Milady! 1 (Pass the Monster Meat, Milady!, #1)

by Chika Mizube

A fantasy romance about a voracious lady who delights in monster meat and a mad-blooded duke who is swept off his feet by her curious charms. If you loved Delicious in Dungeon and Drifting Dragons, you will be salivating for some grilled moodle and burning hot love in this series!

Like any proper noble lady, one must have certain acquired tastes. For Melphiera Marchalrayd, she just happens to crave a rather exotic protein -monsters! But do not judge! Despite its bad reputation, monster meat can be used in exquisite cuisine and Melphiera is determined to change the kingdom’s opinion of it! Unfortunately, since debuting in society, Melphiera has been struggling to find her perfect match...until she meets the fearless “Blood-Mad Duke” of Galbraith!

Japanese romanized title: Akujiki Reijō to Kyōketsu Kōshaku: Sono Mamono, Watashi ga Oishiku Itadakimasu!

Summary:

Melphiera Marchalrayd has a very particular sense of taste. By that, we mean she enjoys monster meat. Most people would be terrified of the idea of eating monsters, but Melphiera understands that there is a way to make monster meat safe for consumption.

Unfortunately, it's rather difficult to find a husband when you have a reputation for eating monsters. Enter the "Blood-Mad Duke" of Galbraith. He's known to be harsh and aloof, but he may be about to meet his match.

Review:

What a unique concept! Pass the Monster Meat, Milady! Vol. 1 is a quirky and sometimes hilarious start to the series. I can't wait to get to know the characters more, as there is so much potential in this romantic comedy.

Pass the Monster Meat, Milady! Vol. 1 introduces us to a world where monsters exist, and naturally, they cause quite a ruckus. For the most part, people seem content to avoid the monsters whenever possible. Except those that are trained to hunt them, of course.

I enjoy the unique nature of Melphiera's taste. Sometimes, the cooking descriptions go too far for my liking (not a graphic thing, more like my brain just shut off at all the details, you know?). Overall, I'd say this is a fun series worth checking out.

Highlights:
Fantasy Manga
Monsters
Romantic Comedy
Medieval Monster Hunting

Will I continue the series? Probably!

Thanks to Kodansha Comics and #NetGalley for making this book available for review. All opinions expressed are my own.
