While I'm fairly health-conscious, I'm very new to juicing. It has often seemed intimidating and too much trouble to bother with for a glass of juice. I was missing out and am glad I bought this book. The recipes are easy to make, and the ones I have tried taste great. The author brings her enthusiasm to readers, and I found myself less worried about doing it all perfectly, and more carefree in just enjoying the trial-and-error, the benefits, learning what I like, and trying the various recipes.There is a significant variety here, and some of these juice drinks can also double as a cold soup -- perfect for a hot summer day. I was surprised at how good some of them were. As a single person, I'm now able to get the nutritious benefits of vegetables I'd be unlikely to prepare and eat as part of a meal (like beets).Some of the recipes could benefit from more detailed directions, and if you're willing to let go of "doing it exactly right" and enjoy trying the recipes, this book is a helpful resource. I imagine more practiced juicers probably wouldn't even notice.Lastly, as much as we know we shouldn't judge a book by its cover, I love this one! It is fresh, clean, and oozes healthy goodness. Much like the book.
