Not my kind of book, but still very glad I read it. Having a hard time deciding on a rating.
Honestly, this book was nothing I expected. And it is definitely my fault too. I saw mushroom in the title and saw it categorized as a science book, so I wanted to read it.
But it is not really about science. It is much more about societies that developed around the Matsutake Mushroom. It is a book about mushroom picking, woodland "management", the idea of capital in different cultures and subcultures, and multiple forms of trades.
The Matsutake mushroom, and everything around it, is truly fascinating. I would have never read a book like this if not for them being mushrooms.

I am also not an expert in society critique, so I might be unfair.

But this book was so weird at the same time. It felt so forced, of making a certain point with evidence that didn't really fit. I don't know, it was weird.
Here are two reviews I liked:
