karmakat's review
2.0
I received a copy for free in exchange for a review.
Pros: There are some interesting ideas for use in here. Nice to have it in one place.
Cons: Many grammar and editing errors, some of them pretty egregious (their instead of they're, mediation instead of meditation). Repetitive at times. Lack of explanation on why one should use an essential oil instead of the natural ingredient (like cinnamon essential oil in cookies instead of just using cinnamon).Pictures don't always match text (see teeth whitener for example). No mention of how to use essential oils safely, except for one note in one recipe. (Yes, in general they appear safe when heavily diluted and used topically or as aromatherapy, but the verdict still seems to be out as far as ingesting them goes.)
