Synopsis:
What will you sacrifice to attain true health?
Valerie just arrived at Doctor’s hidden utopia for what was supposed to be a weekend of wellness.
A weekend of eating fruits straight from the farm. Of screaming hula hoop yoga and dynamic meditation to expel toxins Valerie knew were holding her back. A retreat where she’d attain the energy needed to return home and set new personal records at the gym. To land her dream job.
And of course, she’d finally have an appointment with Doctor, the naturopathic yogi guru who discovered the healing powers of drinking blood. He’d cured cancer. Leaky gut. Hashimoto’s thyroid and more.
But it turns out the blood-drinking wellness craze that swept the coasts isn’t too popular in rural Pennsylvania.
Get ready for sex, yoga, and blood.
Lots of Blood.
Review:
Let’s talk about “Bad Vibrations”, shall we?
We all know how influential social media can be. Whether it is a new trend or just the way it can affect us emotionally and mentally. We all know the so-called “influencers” and we choose whom we want to follow. Sometimes it can be a good thing and sometimes not so much.
In this story “The Doctor” and his followers are the influencers. They have developed a plan for attaining energy, health, and internal growth by living as pure as possible. Vegan diets, organically grown food, sexual energy transfer, yoga, and drinking blood.
The weekend retreat quickly turns into a bloody war between the health group and the local police that do not want their corruptive ways influencing their town.
There is a lot of depth in the writing that includes referencing many epidemics and phobias that most are familiar with. The divide that occurs between social, political, and health ideals and disagreements along with shaming.
I believe a vast majority would really enjoy this, as so much of it is relatable and sheds a light on the idiocracy of society. But you're also going to have a lot of laughs with all the comedic characters and content.
Having read some of Leitner’s stories before, I knew I would not be disappointed!
