Blogging for Books: I Quit Sugar by Sarah Wilson Review

[youtube=http://youtu.be/Vz7Dwg4dm1E]

Hi everyone!

I'm so excited to be reviewing my first book for Blogging for Books. It is only fitting that I choose a cookbook as my first review. I initially chose this particular book because of the title. I mean who doesn't want to become my health conscience about the sugar they intake daily. So needless to say I was quite surprised by the fact that I actually enjoyed reading it and look forward to cooking more of the recipes. To make this review quick and easy I break it down to three pros and three cons.

Pros:

1. Bright and colorful. It's a cookbook and one without color is just wrong. The author made sure to include plenty of pictures of what most of the recipes should look like. Having a visual aspect in a cookbook makes it more user friendly.


2. Factual. This book is filled with great facts about sugar and all it entails. Many things I had no clue about. I.e. the amount of sugar in one banana.


3. Recipes are easy to follow. I made one dish, the breakfast casserole[gallery columns="2" ids="2213,2214"]
   
   It turned out really good and my boyfriend loved it!

Cons:

1. Some of the items listed in the recipes are not easy to find so you would have to substitute a lot. Some items are also on the pricey side. But no one said eating healthy would be cheap.


2. The book price is a bit pricey in my opinion. I would take about $5 off. After taxes you're looking at a close $30 and that's just totally not worth it.


3. I really don't like that's she eliminates fruit in the eight week program. That's one reason why I haven't started it completely yet. I mean, I love my red plums!!
