If you are like me and you love the idea of gardening herbs and using them in your cooking, but you can't get a plan to stay alive no matter how much you try? Then this book is certainly for you. The author goes into great details about how to identify the herbs how to plant them the best ways, which ones do well next to each other and which ones don't. The author also helps identify a lot of mistakes that are commonly made and how to avoid them, or if you already made that mistake he writes how to fix it. Which for me was the most important part. I really like this book since it was easy for me to read and understand and it was not too long, but still provided all the information that I needed. I now have a couple of plants living on my kitchen counter and I am much more hopeful in my abilities of keeping them alive. A fantastic book to get for any kitchen gardener.

I will definitely keep this in my pocket, because it is very educational and handy. It is well written, easy to understand and also easy to follow. Again, my only request is more pictures but that's just me.
