Useless:
This was pretty useless as a book, I might use it as a coaster. (if I used it as a coaster though I'd have to actually admit to buying the darn thing). I didn't like it, I thought it was very repetitive and boring. If anyone wants my copy I'll send it to you for shipping costs.. Just let me know.

Good book, very useful:
I love this book and find myself looking through it very often throughout the day....I wish there were more references to health products/foods/drinks, etc. I was very excited to go online and buy the MIRACLE REDS...a great substitution for high sugar, high calorie energy drinks. I think that the advice/tips that are provided throughout the book are great.
