Summary: A Life changing book for all beings - animal and human!
Comment: I highly recommend this book for anyone who wishes for a better, safer and healthier world. I have been a Vegetarian most of my life and now a Vegan for 7 years. So I'm not new to the Vegan way of life and yet, I loved and learned much from this book. Most of the time you see celebrities writing books and you think that they are just using their celebrity to make more money and think "what would a movie star have to say that's intelligent?" Maybe that happens with other celebrities but we as humans shouldn't be so judgmental so fast. I don't know for sure about all other celebrities books but what I do know for sure is that "Going Vegan!" by Linda Blair is not one of these 'money making schemes.' No, it's not an autobiography of her life. Someday, as a huge fan, I hope to read an autobiography written by her. "Going Vegan!" is her journey towards realizing that the way our world treats our animal friends on a daily basis is horrible and very selfish not to mention very unhealthy for humans too. You will learn that being Vegan means you don't have to give up any of the foods you love because there are substitutes for anything you would ever want to eat. Plus it's not "expensive" to go Vegan as I hear a lot from people I speak with that this is one of their reasons for not trying to go Vegan or Vegetarian. Plus the Vegan alternatives are better for your health. As a long time Vegan , having read countless books on the subject I found this book special because it's straight to the point and an easy read. Meaning since she is not a Doctor she is using language and thoughts that anyone can understand. Nothing wrong with reading a book about being Vegan written by Doctors, I actually suggest it and within her book Linda does too. What I mean about her book being an 'easy' read is that it's a great "first" introduction book to the life of a Vegan. Linda is just a human being like the rest of us and so that's the way she talks to us within her book. She makes learning about "Going Vegan!" interesting and understandable. Plus you will get some wonderful recipes to try, which I have already done and they are yummy! You will also get a very helpful list of the types of ingredients found in everyday food that you might not realize are stolen from these innocent animals and placed within common foods. Some of the book is hard to read due to the tortures these animals go through on a daily basis but I urge you to give this book a chance to teach you. Reading a book about "Going Vegan!" doesn't make you're a radical Animal Activist. There is nothing wrong with being an advocate for the animals, they need all the help from us humans that they can get. But information is the key to a better future and Linda Blair might always be "The actress from The Exorcist - Linda Blair" but with this honorable and intelligent book she now deserves to also be known as a caring, tireless and intelligent human being now turned Author. She spends her time working and devoting her life to helping the animals and thus helping us humans along the way. Thank you Linda for this book.

Summary: A Worthy Effort
Comment: I ordered this book on a recommendation, but found it to lack depth and substance. I was also distracted by the numerous editing errors and typos in it. I will give Linda Blair credit for a worthy effort on her part for a first book, and I believe in her cause, but I didn't learn anything new in it. However, that having been said, there is an extensive list of vegan resources which I found helpful, and I also found the typical day's eating for several vegans helpful. She touches on several issues concerning a vegan lifestyle, but doesn't really elaborate on any of them. The book is a little pricey for its content in my opinion, but good if one has read nothing else on the subject.
