Summary: Greasy Recipes
Comment: I bought this book hoping that it would provide some new and interesting recipes. I have been preparing healthy raw meals for over 2 years. I have a few problems with Any's book: (1) All her recipes use lots of oil and nuts, and many of them a lot of sugar, and therefore they are ultra-high in calories, (2) Most of her recipes are from other cookbooks (not much of originality), (3) I find it very unappealing to see Any's photos on every other page instead of pictures of deliciously cooked food. Honestly, the book from Jennifer Cornbleet is much better for simple, delicious and light raw meals.

Summary: Yum recipes & inspirational advice!
Comment: What a lovely un-cookbook! I am a new raw-foodie and this is the first raw/live food cookbook I've owned. I read an article on Ani in a magazine that featured a few of her recipes. I made those recipes and they were delish so I decided to pick up her book! So far, everything I've made from her book has been yummy and fairly simple to prepare. I do wish there was more info on the soaking nuts, it's a little too general for me. But I'm sure I can find another book with that info. All in all, this book has delicious easy recipes, great advice on taking care of the environment and it's very positive and encouraging! Ani has an easy going personality and I like how simple she makes preparing raw foods. This is definitely a book you should own. Raw or not, it has great recipes anyone will enjoy!! My meat-loving husband has devoured everything I have made so far and loved it! I was shocked. I definitely encourage you to pick up a copy of this great cookbook!

Summary: Ani's
Comment: The book is affordable, and even the local library has a copy. I'm so glad to see that there are books that don't scare people away from Veganism, Vegetarianism, eco and environmentally friendly topics like traps by Jungle or hungry Safari animals! Absolutely Awesome! The book offers the general public baby steps forward, for long term health and environment on Earth! Bravo Ani!

Summary: Contains some delicious recipes, Good book to own
Comment: This book has some great things to offer. For the most part the recipes are realistic (as opposed to some other raw books, like juliano's). Most everything I've made has been yummy. I think there are a few too many photos of her eating, staring at the reader, walking, pretending to be going about her everyday life but obviously posing, etc. It annoys me but besides that I really have enjoyed using this book, it has good advice in it, and seems well thought out. She says that she only sleeps a few hours a night now that she's raw which seems odd. Many of the recipes are high sugar- natural sugar is definitely the way to go, but there is such a thing as a sugar addiction.
