I really enjoyed this look into different uses for CBD. I have started using CBD regularly for anxiety and stress relief as well as insomnia so this book was exactly what I had been looking for.

CBD & Chill is a one-stop shop for all your CBD questions! The book assumes nothing and gives a thorough and detailed background of Hemp and CBD. It’s extremely obvious that Bodin and Tarello are passionate about CBD and it’s benefits and know what they’re talking about. The information included sometimes walked a fine line of being almost too much information, but I will say that I honestly know way more about CBD than I ever anticipated knowing and I’m not mad about it!

There was an amazing variation of recipes included. I’m excited to try the beauty masks and lip scrubs. I also really loved that they included recipes for doggos! I’ve considered CBD for my dog and can’t wait to try the pumpkin peanut butter treats and banana ice cream!

One thing I will mention is that the recipes didn't have any titles, so you had to read the descriptions to figure out what the recipe was. Which isn't a huge deal when you’re reading cover to cover, but when you’re flipping through the book looking for a specific recipe, it could be harder to find what you're looking for easily. Maybe this will be fixed in the final print. It seemed inconsequential but was something I noticed and found odd!

All in all, I think that if you’ve found yourself wondering about the CBD hype and how CBD could help you, this book is for you!

Thank you Sasquatch Books for this copy of CBD&Chill by Chris Tarello and Tori Bodin for review.

My husband and I are new to CBD and their many uses and this book helped a lot. Not only are there are a varitey of uses and recipes for CBD but also some information on the different types you might find at the beginning of the book. We are going to try some of the cocktail and sweet treat recipes but the cosmetic products seemed like a fun way to incorporate some oil for dry skin as well. Great resource for anyone looking to add more CBD into their lifestyle.

This book is both a blast to read and learn about the world of CBD. Not only does it provide a helpful guide about the types of CBD and related products, it provides a diary to help you monitor your wellness and the 75 recipes. Plus, the book is really beautifully designed. I will reference this over and over again in the future.

I use CBD products everyday, in different forms, but I have never used them as part of a recipe. This book offered 75 CBD-infused recipes for everyday use and well-being. Part one of the book contains recipes for breakfast, snacks, desserts, drinks, and even for your pets. The second part of the book has recipes for the face, hair, and body.

If you’re not familiar with CBD, there’s a well explained guide to CBD and what you need to know including how to purchase these products, the dosing, and the delivery method such as tincture/topical/ vape/edible.

I liked how the author included an explanation for the use of the recipes along with the key benefits of each recipe given. You can easily see which recipe to use according to your specific need. Examples of some of the key benefits include: immunity booster, improve focus, energy booster, reduce nausea, drawing out impunities, reduces inflammation, relieves tension, and reduces bloating and pain.

This was a very resourceful book for anyone already using CBD and also for those that want to try alternative ways to improve their overall wellness.

An ARC was given for an honest review.

This book does an excellent job of explaining what CBD is, and where it comes from. They explain different methods of ingestion, and why testing is so important. This book has 75 recipes for drinks, treats, beauty and skincare. There is even 2 recipes for dogs. The recipes are easy to follow, and have beautiful color pictures of the finished product. I can't wait to try some once i procure the ingredients necessary. This is a good book for people to relieve anxiety, inflammation, dry skin, etc.

An interesting recipe book of the various ways to use CBD in your food, drinks, and body care products. I'm not sure why I would need CBD infused lip gloss, but if I ever want some I know where to go!
