Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life by Barbara Kingsolver

5.0

I agree with Valerie's review--the only downside to this excellent book is Kingsolver's occasional lapse into beating the reader with a local carrot. Despite that, this may be the most thought-provoking book I've read all year. I am more aware of the mileage that some of my favorite foods must travel to reach me. She and her family set out on an experiment that was worthwhile for them and inspirational for me.
