Reviews

Goodreads review by Alexis on May 12, 2019

I bought this book because I already have a plant-based diet and I needed a kickstart to make me start being healthier again. The book is very preachy, but most of what it says is perfectly true.

Goodreads review by Brandon on February 16, 2020

I own a book called plant-based on a budget, which provides simple, cheap vegan recipes that anyone could make. This book may be the opposite. Set up as part self-help, part-workout plan, part-vegan recipe book, Borges' 22-Day Revolution isn’t bad, so much as it could be so much better. The premise o......more
