I was looking for a guide to IF and this book was exactly what I needed! Lesley does a great job of explaining the IF process, along with different IF schedules and their pros / cons, what to watch for and tips to be successful. I did appreciate the “real world” celebrity references, too. This was a super helpful book that I will reference as I start my IF journey.
