I’ve seen better books about this subject but it was okay. Think there are some easier recipes out there. And I don’t why, but this really bothered me: the book was apparently just published but all the images were super outdated. I felt like I was reading a book from the 90s but it was published in 2019. Just seemed really outdated overall.

3.5- A great resource for the beginner in diy natural cleaning. There’s a wealth of information for every area of the home. The author’s tone is conversational. I saved a bunch of recipes to try, most involving vinegar and baking soda.

This is about green cleaning. I wish the author would have included products( brands) that she uses

I was actually looking for more recipes than tips on how to clean. If you are looking for how to clean your house this is the book for you.

This book is a good starter read for going green; it provided information on the importance to go Green in your home; how it benefits you and your family not to use harsh chemicals; how to swap/transition to eco friendly items, tips on green cleaning at home by rooms, and etc... I was not too crazy about the recipes in this book but found better ones (in other books).
