PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Moran (Main Street Vegan), a reformed binge-eater who dropped 50 pounds by going vegan and now advocates a "high green, high-raw, high-energy" way of eating, offers an anemic follow-up to her Main Street Vegan book and podcasts. The Good Karma approach is pretty basic: eat foods high in nutrient density, and avoid animal products and processed foods to "lessen the suffering of billions of animals lighten the burden on the planet." The rewards of such conscious eating, Moran says, are radiant good health plus improved karma. In 25 brief chapters, the book offers some superficial nutritional information; a 21-day, nine-point plan for gradually going vegan; a suggested batterie de vegan cuisine; a short list of vitamins and supplements; and (sometimes) inspiring personal testimonials from the author and 16 of her friends, which together make up almost half of the entire volume. Thirty-six recipes and a recommended reading list appear in the appendices. Slim on content, this book is unlikely to be much of a contender in the now hugely popular genre of vegan cookbooks and nutrition guides.
