The 5 star is because I really can't fault it for what it is. Obviously it's tiny and I want now, but it's meant to be small and approachable, so I'm done with that. Knowing that, I think it was a good mix of some personal info and presenting what should be basic information in a digestible way. It didn't read like a reference book which is really what it is because Vaid-Menon has such a strong, beautiful voice. I also really appreciated the metaphors and other ways of explaining concepts that were fresh and clear while also not being offensive for people who would most need to read this book. Not that they will but hey some might!
