Awesome! I am so happy that a celeb is spreading the vegan word! :) You are amazing Alicia, keep it up, we will get there!!!

I can't wait to buy a copy of your book!!!

I blog about my yummy vegan meals at gingeristhenewpink.blogspot.com I hope to blog some of your recipes soon!

Nice to see you on here, Lauren! I'm about to place an order for the Kind Diet too!
I'm really interested in learning more about different foods and ideas for meals. I can't wait to get your book :)
It was so great to meet you this weekend! Thanks again -- if it wasn't for I would have never become a healthy whole foods vegan chef!!!

I just bought a copy of The Kind Life. I had to ask the clerk at Barnes & Noble to find it for me, as they had not stocked it out front yet. He was kind enough to go get me a copy from the back of the store, and I already feel good about making the first step toward taking better care of my body! It looks like this book will give me all of the information that I need to lead me to nature's jewels rather than junk. Thank you for writing this book. I feel like I found it exactly at the right time.I'm ready to become a vegan!xo

I just purchased the book today...I have been anticipating it's release for about a month now! I have only read about 15 or 20 pages and I am already so inspired and excited about this book.  It is really easy to understand and has a lot of good points. Can't wait to get to the recipes! =) Thanks So Much!! XoXo

I bought your book today and just got through chapter five. I have been so excited about changing to plant based products I had to call friends during the reading, which can make the process a little slow...Ha! 
Just wanted to say hello. Just bought the book and like Ashley am already inspired by the first 20 pages. This diet will be a huge transition for me but when I heard this book was coming out I knew it was finally time I take the leap. So glad to have this resource for support and advice. Thanks Alicia! P.s. A number of the book stores here in NYC were already sold out of the book by 6:30 tonight and the one I found it in commented on how popular it was!!! Congrats!!!
I can't wait to pick up a copy of your book! I knew it would only be a matter of time before you decided to share your enthusiasm for veganism. I get most of my recipes from cook books and I love online searching. My favorites sites are www.theppk.com, www.vegcooking.com and various blogs. I also post the occasional recipe on our blog www.theeandersons.blogspot.com. I look forward to swapping recipes and making some potential new veg friends!
I ordered The Kind Diet from Amazon! I hope this gives me the push I need to go veg! I heart Alicia for doing this!

Dear Alicia, I’m trying to be a good human being, towards humans AND animals, and lately (the last 6 years ;o( ) I have understood that my conscience/soul is suffering, because I’m still eating meet! For the last year I have started to support groups like NHOA (our Norwegian animal rights group) to educate myself. And believe me it has helped! I cry over how easily we human beings ignore the suffering we humans put the animals through! We are so weak , it is so easy for us to just ignore to educate our self, so we can continue to eat our juicy steaks. I am talking on behalf of myself as well as I know that we find it so hard to look at pictures and read articles that show us the hard facts – we have a  lack of willingness to really take a close look on what we are doing to our animals! So thank you for what you a doing, it is making a difference it’s inspiring and a kind/nice way to approach people, and to wake up our conscience! I wish you also would put some links to organizations that really show the facts (the raw facts) about what we are doing to our animals and really encourage your readers to LOOK and THINK about what we are doing when we are choosing to eat meat. I will start from today- to choose veggies and to not eat meat! I think that your site was a sign for me today to encourage me to be a better human! With a hug to you, God bless you for that you are trying to do something about this horrifying crime we are doing towards the animals! Love Lill

Thank you <3
Alabama representing here. :-)  I thought it was funny that you picked Alabama as the hypothetical place to travel in your intro since I am one of the "not-so-common" vegans in this area.  If anybody is heading to Birmingham anytime soon be sure to check out The Bottle Tree Cafe.  They're not totally vegan (we don't have ANY vegan restaurants here, yet) but they have a good selection of vegan options on their menu and cater heavily to vegetarians and vegans. 

Alicia, thanks for sharing the love and for all that you do to promote and further this compassionate lifestyle.  Best of luck with this new venture.
Alicia, THANK YOU so much for bringing light to the most incredible lifestyle. I wish more people would get just as excited and I'm sure your book will help. A few years ago when I was having health issues, I turned to nature and I never looked back. What you are standing behind is not only healthy eating/living but also the best form of preventative "medicine" that exists! Can't wait to share with all my friends....since going {almost} vegan I've been glowing and now I have a tool to give to everyone that is asking about my secret! xxx
