At the heart of it, this book is a very human story, and perhaps that's why I didn't love it like I loved her husband's books. Helen seems to swing between loving and promoting her lifestyle, and feeling overwhelmed by it all, which ofcourse, is totally normal. I didn't love the intensity to which she promotes eating meat, but again, she is a farmer, ofcourse she believes her way of life is best and I can't fault her for that.

Overall I found the book to be a bit disjointed and patchy in places, but really enjoyed the farming parts and the honest way she talks about her life.
