If you've read any of my other recent book reviews, you'll already know that I start them all off by saying that every book I read starts off with the full load of 5 stars and that I'm always hopeful that they'll all still be firmly in place by the time I close the back cover. You'll also know that when I drop stars, it's never without giving a reason - they don't just vanish into thin air.
Let's get going with the reading and reviewing.
This book is only 64 Kindle pages long, so in theory I'll be able to get it read and reviewed between carer visits and physio sessions, but we shall have to wait and see I guess.
The first section was good, if repetitive... is this man, who isn't a doctor, just trying to use words to hit a specific word count that his publisher has given him or something?
Section 2 was short and said that we need to take control of the acid in our bodies rather than popping pills from the doc... it already sounds like the entire book is gonna be a repition of "eat right and don't take any notice of doctors and you'll be fine" unfortunately.
Section 3 has started going on about corrosive acids again, so the first star is coming off for saying the same thing in each section so far. I had high hopes for this book, but it's just too repetitive so far.
Yep, section 3 was another short one that just repeated the previous section... this seems to be a man who wants to appear knowledgeable but just doesn't have a clue, so the second star is coming off unfortunately.
Here we go again. For the fourth section, the author is talking about the acid/alkaline balance again, so we're down to 2 stars at 36%.
Guess what the very short and repetitive fifth section talks about? Yep, the acid/alkaline balance again, so at 38% the final star comes off and I've officially given up on it so I'm stopping reading right here. The rest of the book might be a total revolutionary life-saver, but the repetitive nature of the first five sections doesn't give me hope unfortunately.
