This book features 40 recipes for smoothies. It breaks the smoothies into categories, such as energy, digestion, mood, relax, and hearty, to help the reader decide which smoothie will work for their mood or need. There are no photographs, but rather bright-colored smoothie illustrations. There is a user guide and a breakdown of ingredients and their health benefits. The smoothies require a lot of ingredients, some of which are a little unusual, such as cooked chickpeas and cacao nibs. A well-stocked pantry and a strong blender are required for all the recipes in this book, so this title might be overwhelming for beginning smoothie drinkers. Some readers might also prefer to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich before tackling a PB&J smoothie.
VERDICT If a reader is a smoothie expert and looking to expand their recipe base, this would make a great addition to their collection. Casual smoothie fans may be overwhelmed.
