I wanted to like this book.... June 30, 2008 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
I wanted to like this book, I really did. I found it to be very cute, but a bit of a puff piece.
There's alot of tid bits of information, but nothing substantial. Some information is conflicting - on one page Sophie says she avoids microwaves and doesn't want it altering the molecules in her food. Yet, on another page, she writes that the microwave is the most eco-friendly way to cook, as it uses the least amount of energy.
And yoga sun salutations and exercise instructions don't belong in a green guide. They just don't!
I also purchased Easy Green Living by Renee Loux and found it to be much more substantial and informative - like a mini encyclopedia on what you need to do to live green.

This is the best book i have bought in a long time.. Very insightful and life changing.
Green IS Gorgeous June 29, 2008 This book has so many wonderful ideas on how to go green. It also made me really think about my life and my contribution to our amazing planet. We can all do so much to help and NOW is the time! I hope you will read this book and implement several of its ideas. I already have...and I know that I am making a difference. YOU can, too.
Gorgeously awesome June 23, 2008 A friend of mine got this book for me and I love it. Yes some of the beauty products she suggests are a little pricey but she always gives a couple of affordable options as well, and you can always do your own research and find other things on the websites she mentions (she can't list every product out there, it would take up the whole book).
Really good book.
Great book! June 19, 2008 I absolutely loved this book. Prepare to be inspried by Sophies no-nonsense approach to going green. I also love that she doesn't sugar coat things - some aspect of going green aren't easy, but well worth it in the long run.
