I bought this as a mother's day present, and while my mother loves it, I have to admit I've been borrowing the book for my own use, and I'm a big fan as well!

The tutorials are very easy to follow along with, and my only complaint is that the plants aren't labeled. It would have been nice to know

what it is I'm learning to draw! But the results have been great every time, and while I've been getting better at drawing recently, it's not a natural skill for me. So I really believe that even if you're not an artist, you would be able to follow along with these steps and create very appealing drawings!

All of the drawings I've attempted have been fairly easy to adapt and build upon as well, so you'll have a lot to work with even beyond the large variety provided in the book. So if you're a journaler, a doodler, an artist, into bullet journaling and planning, or just looking to fill up the corners and borders of your notes and lists, then I'd recommend this book.
