Book of Secrets

Disappointed with this purchase which is really just a novelty item of little depth or value.

Great little book, was very happy when it arrived. Just a marvelous little book of secrets.

Waste of time and totally rubbish book is really small!!! Don't be fooled by this description could spend this money on something more knowledgeable.

I sat back with a few beers expecting a good evening read.Yes it was entertaining, but four beers later I'd finished it and thought...That was short!A bit of a disappointment.

This book is really tiny - less than 4 inches in length and a bit over hundred pages. It contains odds and ends of helpful tips, recipes, quotes,some factual information, some semi-accurate information and opinions on different topics.For examples, in the section related to casinos, it says that "Casinos want you to lose touch with the outside world and your sense of time. There are no clocks in the casino" - which is true, but then it also says that "dealers do not wear watches", which is not true, at least not in North America.Useful tip for people trying to lose weight may be that eating food rich in calcium may assist with weight loss, or to quote from this book:"Eating yogurt will actually help you lose weight, as the high calcium content provides a catalyst for your body to burn fat more efficiently and will actually limit the amount of fat your body will support.While the book doesn't reveal the secret ingredient in the Colonel's recipe that made Kentucky Fried Chicken a success, you will find a recipe for making breaded chicken.Throughout the book you will come across variety of quotations - like "The Secret of Keeping the Secret""Three may keep a secret if two of them are dead." - Benjamin FranklinAmong the helpful tips you'll find tips for improving memory, remembering names, selling a house, dating, bargain hunting and assortment of culinary information.Among the facts you'll find a variety of historical information about the Tower of London, Christian Catacombs, list of famous American Freemasons, and other odds and ends.

not read christmas present

don't be fooled! it is tiny !

could have read a google article for the amount of info this book hasdon't waste your money

This is so cute and fun. It's a fun read for the bathroom ;)

Very small book. Print is small and hard to read. I was expecting a book about the size of a tablet but received a book about the size of a small closed flip phone

great

SON ENJOYED

As expected!

didn't realize the book was so small

This is a good stocking stuffer or casual gift. It's about the size of an average coaster. I put this down as a learning experience.. You might think like me - adequate page number, good preview. Then you open your package and feel cheated by the tiny book at the bottom of the box. It's not for people who can't see small writing. The info is okay. But not great. But it's a nifty small tiny tome you could keep in a small pocket for incidental reading times.

Thought this would be fun but its a waste of money. There are no secrets its all junk information. The secret to long life: eat yogurt are you kidding me? And there'a even a page with a quote from Bill Cosby and Woody Allen which says a lot about the good editing and profound ressearch that was done writing this (dare I say) book. And the size is super small. Its basically a book that you put in the bathroom so that guests have something to read. I would say it's worth as much as what will fall in the toilet....

It should have been called the Tiny Book of Snippets. Even though there were interesting tidbits, overall I was disappointed with this book. It has the look and feel of something thrown together with the lease effort possible.

Interesting tidbits ... good bathroom reader .. tells tales of things you normally would not think about .. some common things others not so common

This book went well with a few other fact books as a gift for dad for fathers day. Nice gift

very interesting little book! A fun, quick read

Book is tiny, the size of a larger match box
