When life for the entire universe and planet turns on its end and like everyone else you "have nothing to do" while your place of work is closed and you are continuing to be in #COVID19 #socialisolation, superspeed readers like me can read 250+ pages/hour, so yes, I have read the book … and many more today. And it is way too hot to go outside, so why not sit in from of the blasting a/c and read and review books?? BTW - stay home and save lives!!!!!!!! No tan is worth dying for.
I requested and received a temporary digital Advance Reader Copy of this book from #NetGalley, the publisher and the author in exchange for an honest review.
From the publisher, as I do not repeat the contents or story of books in reviews, I let them do it as they do it better than I do 😸.

I love the "She Glows" series of books as the food is healthy --- it is ingredients vs. prepackaged foods full of chemicals and artificial ingredients. I am not a fan of smoothies so this DINNER book was wonderful. I have written down so many recipes for myself that I am just goog to buy it when it comes out - any vegan or vegetarian meal that I can sneak into my husband is an added bonus. (He lives on boxed and canned foods when he is working out of town!)
The recipes will appeal to many people who are vegan or who know hot to an can add animal products if that floats your boat...I need real dairy cheese as that is one of the few proteins I can digest. What an amazing book - read it and eat it!
As always, I try to find a reason to not rate with stars as I love emojis (outside of their incessant use by "🙏-ed Social Influencer Millennials/#BachelorNation survivors/Tik-Tok and YouTube Millionaires/etc. " on Instagram and Twitter... Get a real job, people!) so let's give it 🍅🥕🥔🍄🥑
