Okay, so I finally got my hands on this herbal remedies book everyone's been raving about. Here's the tea ☕ (pun intended):

First impression? THICC. Like, 250+ pages of herbal knowledge thicc. The cover feels nice and sturdy though - definitely shelf-worthy.

The good stuff: The recipes are actually legit! Made the muscle rub for my post-workout aches and wowza - works better than my usual pharmacy cream. Who knew plants could be this powerful?

Organization could be better though. Trying to find a specific remedy feels like herb-hunting in the wild sometimes. Pro tip: use sticky tabs to mark your fave sections!

Biggest surprise? The cough drop recipe! Never thought I'd be making my own meds like some modern-day apothecary witch 🧙‍♀️

Would I recommend? If you're into DIY wellness and don't mind some trial-and-error, absolutely! But maybe not for complete newbies - some terms had me Googling like crazy.
