Five + stars for this amazing book!
It is so much more than a useful guide, it is well written, funny, personal and beautiful to look at. I especially like the straightforward style of the writer, she's very honest and clear about her own choices in life. While reading I get the feeling I've known her for years.
She never tells me what I'm supposed to do, but rather gives options to make the choices that suit my lifestyle. I'm not perfect and will probably never be, and this book aknowledges that. The writer's personal insights, inspiring interviews and sometimes stunning facts and figures just help me to make better decisions. When I'm in a store or go shopping online, I think of this. And if I buy something new now, I appreciate it more.
I recommend it to anyone, male or female, and I know it's going to be my gift for a lot of friends. Birthdays, holidays, any occasion really. Even the price is amazing, with the hard cover, rich information and beautiful design.
So I heartily agree with Katharine Hamnett on the back cover: If you'd like to live better, BUY THIS BOOK.
Excellent and inspiring book! So glad I bought this, would recommend it to everyone.
