Set on a small Irish dairy farm, this tender and funny debut novel follows two lost souls as they try to carve out new lives amid a colorful cast of characters reminiscent of those in the hit film Waking Ned Divine. Abby has been estranged from the family farm since her rebellious mother ran off with her when she was a small child. Kit is a burned out New York stockbroker who's down on his luck. But that's all about to change, now that he and Abby have converged on the farm just in time to help Corrie and Fee, two old cheesemakers in a time of need. Full of delightful and quirky characters--from dairy cows who only give their best product to pregnant, vegetarian teens to an odd collection of whiskey-soaked men and broken-hearted women who find refuge under Corrie and Fee's roof--BLESSED ARE THE CHEESEMAKERS is an irresistible tale about taking life's spilled milk and turning it into the best cheese in the world.

    Pretty standard Brit Chic Lit. Loved the part of the book that dealt with the cheese factory and all the supporting characters; not so much the parts that dealt with our two main characters and their "romance".

    This was one of those books I picked up because I was intrigued and then didn't read it for ages. I was surprised by how it captured me, I liked the way it was structured and I found that I wanted to find out more as I went on. It's interesting how cheese can shape people's lives.
