This is a really great book. I loved the writing style, it keeps you interested while giving you information about nutrition and eating habits. As a vegetarian, I agreed with the parts of the book about factory farming, but I found the vivid, graphic descriptions almost too much. Overall a really great book, I also love the menus and the resources that are included!
Skinny Bitch is the guide to eating guilt free for the rest of your life. Yes, it's about being a vegan. Yes, it's in your face. Yes, it will tell you to get off your ass and change your life to help you live longer and benefit the environment.
I learned so much through this book. It isn't a book for those that aren't ready to take off their rose-coloured glasses regarding the meat/dairy/poultry industry. For me though, this book helped to cement my beliefs about why I choose to be a vegan.
It is a choice after all and this is just a book.
Read it if you choose and make up your own mind.

Uno de los mejores libros que he leído entrando al veganismo.
Obwohl es doch sehr witzig geschrieben ist und voller Humor, finde ich, als 15 Jährige, dass die ganzen Informationen über irgendwelche Firmen und deren Zahlen doch sehr schwierig zu verstehen sind und ich deshalb vieles überflogen habe. Die jeglichen anderen Informationen über den Prozess vom Tier bis zum Fleischstück auf'm Teller jedoch fand ich sehr informativ und zugleich erschreckend. Es bringt die Nachricht vom Veganismus und so rüber, nur würde ich es wahrscheinlich besser verstehen wenn ich etwas älter wäre und mehr damit am Hut hätte. Ich hoffe das macht irgendwie Sinn.
So I thought this was going to be a light-hearted, funny read. What I got instead was a crash course in the vegan world. I have decided to give the veg life a try, seeing as I now want to vomit thinking about what goes on before you get your meat on the plate. Very informative, but if you are dedicated to your sirloin, stay away.
More vegan than I realized. The products are very outdated and certainly also full of chemicals but the overall of (most) concepts are great to adopt. Def made me take another look at meat.
This is a really fun, quick read on veganism. It's written in really simple terms with a lot of crassness thrown in, in a good way. It starts out with short chapters on why all the junk we eat, like soda, is bad for us. Great chapter titles, like Sugar is the Devil. They dispel all the myths that we've been fed about why we have to eat meat and dairy. The authors go into details about all the benefits of a vegan lifestyle and explain the political and cruelty aspects in easy to understand terms while still quoting plenty of studies. They even have a nice 4 week meal plan set up at the end and lists of resources and vegan foods named by brand.
What I particularly like about this book is the underlying message of being healthy and taking care of yourself and your body. Although the title may lead you to believe it's all about being skinny, it really isn't.

Definitely impassioned and thought-provoking. A great idea if you are looking to scare yourself into eating well - the authors are sometimes graphic. Still, it was easy to read and definitely entertaining.
Quick fun read, some good information. Though I won't go full out, it gave me some more ideas about eating.
This book should be called Skinny Vegan because most of it is a guide to going vegan. Also, fasting. I am not a good candidate for either of these things.
