Currently reading and trying not to quit. Every time a woman is on page, the writing is very icky. 0/10.

“Your magic isn’t any different than a talent to learn languages or left-handedness. It isn’t something sinister..” bruh. I’ve been holding on this whole time, but you have a medieval Italian setting and what to compare something not SINiSTER to left-handedness. In medieval Italy. Also, our characters are flat and there’s so many side characters with full blown names and families for no reason.

So far, information actually gleaned from this book:
-eat minimally processed food whenever possible
-get up and move throughout the day

Also, this woman could start a cult with her spiritualizing the gut biome?

It’s been a while since I’ve been this enraged at the disingenuousness of an author while reading. Red flag 1: she uses her MD to taut her authority in this subject while undermining the authority of those with an MD, and if her logic is the reason we can’t trust doctors, then maybe she’s right. Rf2: she says not to trust the money in medicine and yet SHE IS SELLING STUFF TO YOU USING FEAR.
