I enjoyed the tips received from this book. I definitely recommend. Well worded and thought out. Only gave 4 stars because I already knew several of the suggestions given.

  • Quick but fun read
Format: Kindle
I really like this book. It makes zero waste very accessible. I also loved the pictures in it because they just made me want to have that kind of cloth for my fruits and vegetables or jars or the idea of making my own garbage bag out of a newspaper was super cool.

  • Please consider using a different kind of ink for future editions.
Format: Paperback
I follow the author on Instagram, and the excerpts I've seen from this book look wonderful, but I am sending the book back. I understand that using soy-based ink is considered more environmentally friendly, but I am severely allergic to soy. I did not notice the small circle advertising this fact on the cover, otherwise I would not have purchased the book. Soy is a TOP 8 ALLERGEN. Why would you print a book using it?? There are adults and children who have severe life-threatening anaphylactic reactions to soy. When I touch anything with soy in it, my blood pressure drops dangerously low and I become extremely nauseous and dizzy. I have been hospitalized from skin contact reactions with soy. I'm glad, I noticed this on the cover before touching the pages, because it could have been very dangerous for me. Please consider printing future editions with a different kind of ink. Thank you. ... show more
