Skinny Bitch by Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin

Well, I have some mixed thoughts on this one. First of all, this isn't too spiritual in nature. This is about a chemical free, organic vegan diet and why it's good for the body and Earth. As a 14 year vegetarian and a freshly minted vegan, I was looking for some help navigating my food options. In that way, this book definitely helps. It also makes a very convincing argument for the obliteration of refined sugar, high fructose corn syrup, aspartame, and a few other disgusting ingredients.

The voice, as the title suggests, is a bit harsh and negative. While I found that entertaining sometimes, the entire book in this voice was a bit much.

It's a great starting point for anyone trying to live a healthy lifestyle, but it's certainly not the bible of veganism or health.
