Book Reviews of Skinny Bitch
Book Review: A good message but with juvenile writing
Summary: 2 Stars
The proposed lifestyle in this book is extreme. The truth is that Americans do not moderate anything. All foods in moderation equal a healthier body and yes, pure water is the only liquid a body should injest. However, the juvenile vernacular seems to suggest the authors have a very basic and limited vocabulary. Where were the editors when this book was written?Book Review: A good start up plan for want to be vegetarians!
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this book with the intention of changing my eating lifestyle. Well I really did! I did not know half the things that were going on behind the "food scene" and I am glad I am now a vegetarian in training. I hope to share the same informtion with other people. I recommend this book ONLY if you are ready for al ifestyle change, not a diet fad.Book Review: A little overkill
Summary: 3 Stars
This is a totally straight forward, no nonsense look at the foods we consume. It explains the science behind substitutes that are supposed to be healthy and why they aren't. It walks you through the processing of the animals we eat and exposes some of the horrific ways these animals are treated on their way to be slaughtered. (That particular chapter made me physically sick). If you think the government cares about the quality of the food you eat, this book will open your eyes and change your mind.
While there is a ton of great information, Skinny Bitch goes over the top in a push toward veganism. It's great to inform the reader about the risks of being a meat eater and the benefit to veganism but it's entirely unnecessary to beat them over the head with your personal preference.
Overall this book has a lot of great information but can leave the reader resentful in its push for the vegan lifestyle.
Book Review: A little too informative for my taste
Summary: 3 Stars
A good read no doubt took me a few hours, stomach turning details regarding meat etc.. basically tells you the way to stay skinny become vegan.Book Review: A lot of grea information
Summary: 5 Stars
This is such a great book!!! Im a health freak and I am actually gradually turning into a vegan myself. I am always looking for cool new fun health and exercise books to read on my time off. This is a book from which you can learn tons of new things in one chapter. It is very easy to read and understand. Very good tool for a healthy life! READ IT
