Book Reviews of Great Garden Companions: A Companion-Planting System for a Beautiful, Chemical-Free Vegetable Garden

Book Review: reference it every day!
Summary: 5 Stars

i checked this book out from the library, and let my neighbor borrow it. she liked it so much didn't want to give it back. as soon as i started reading it, i understood why. it's very approachable, and has lots of crucial information for first-year and experienced gardeners alike. and it's got nice pictures and clear diagrams. i really like the "top crops and how to grow them" section.
so i bought my own copy, and i've been showing it to everyone who stops by to see my veggies. i like her "messy-looking" technique of interplanting all different kinds of vegetables. altho i should have paid more attention to how far apart to plant seeds, i had a veritable tomato forest under my squashes.
i bought another copy for my stepmom, and she loved it. she's a top notch gardener. she wrote to say this book had answered some of her longtime questions, and she had only owned it for a few hours. she said the book was "awesome" and she uses it frequently.
i have half a dozen gardening books, but this is the one i re-read most often.
