review 1: I like Jenny Brown's passion for saving animals. I agree with her that factory farming animals for human consumption can be cruel, however pushing everyone to be vegan, just isn't realistic. I do believe that some smaller farms do humanely raise and slaughter animals, and that consumers need to be aware where their food comes from. Brown totally ignores this idea and insists that all meat operations are bad. The book was interesting to read, and will certainly make you think twice about the products you choose to buy.
review 2: An engaging memoir from one of the owners of Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary, who also took undercover footage at stockyards and factory farms all over the country, The Lucky Ones doesn't pull any punches when describing what she saw - b
... moreut those horrible images of animal suffering are balanced by stories of the rescued animals at the sanctuary as well as the story of how Jenny found her way from mainstream documentary film making to the unconventional but rewarding life she leads now. Despite the gruesome parts (which won't come as any surprise to anyone who's taken a closer look at America's diseased food system), it's an uplifting and inspiring book that reminds us change is possible. less
