A review by cammiem8
When Plants Dream: Ayahuasca, Amazonian Shamanism and the Global Psychedelic Renaissance by Daniel Pinchbeck, Sophia Rokhlin

informative reflective slow-paced

2.25

The information in this book is fascinating, but unfortunately it’s presented in an almost textbook-like manner that’s a slog to get though. The writing styles of the two authors didn’t work for me, and I wish the book had lived up to my expectations, as I was excited to read it.
