A good guide on how to compost nearly everything. I'm a newbie gardener and composting enthusiast , so I wanted to find affordable and eco-friendly techniques to compost things that are typically "no-nos" in the composting community: fish/meat, bones, animal waste, etc. The author takes a light-hearted lackadaisical approach to educating the reader on the different extreme methods that they have personally tried out, and for the most part does so with taste (I only wish some of the humor didn't border on distasteful, such as a random anecdote about hunting for compost with Ethiopian farmers and describing the experience so awkwardly)

Unfortunately I don't think I'll utilize any of these composting methods. These methods are moreso for gardening enthusiasts who have the time and money to perform these methods. Buying 2500 worms or digging a 6 foot trench in my backyard to make a fish carcass bed don't seem to be ways I want to spend my pasttime in the name of being eco-friendly. I simply am just someone who wants to properly dispose of my waste. I will likely stick to my current composting methods, but this is nice to reference.
