Attractions Books

I have over 5 book regarding body language. This one takes the cake. Reads like a dang medical text.
This book is a compilation of other authors WORK, I was so discussed with this book that I stop reading it 3 /4 of the way ( I usually toughen up and read all my books) . One more for the round file. THERE IS BETTER BOOK IN AMAZON ABOUT BODY LAGUANGE.

THE BOOK IS WELL WRITTEN IN UNDERSTANDABLE LAYMEN'S TERMS ALONG WITH TECHNICAL TERMS AS NEEDED. EASILY COMPREHENDED AND EXPLAINED BODY ENGLISH RESPONSES IN RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN MEN AND WOMEN.

The theoretical aspects are covert in excelent way, but i would like more photos or illustrations of some of the concepts

This book is very detailed about body language and the interaction between men and women during courting. I have actually used some of the techniques and noticed a difference in people's reactions toward me. Now I understand how body language does play a major factor in all relationships.

This book replied to many questions that I have wondered for long.
Though it won't make you a real Giacomo Casanova, it might be useful to become more confident and sexy and masculine

Loved getting a bit of "history" along with what to do and what to see! You'll get a better feel for the island with this book. Very detailed (right down to the best roadside stand to buy fruit at on the road to Hana). We love this book....it will be our "bible" when we go...

I am a regular visitor to Maui and I got this book cheap at a library book sale because I am always interested in anything to do with Hawaii. It was surprisingly informative and accurate. The author has even covered some 'local' restaurants (unlike other guide books) she's now blurted to the world, but also missed a few, so some of my favorite finds are safe.
I liked the very detailed, personalized info on hotels etc: 'the owner leaves notes in your room saying things like bang the top of the TV twice if the reception is bad'.
This is an author who clearly enjoyed her research. I gave her four out of five only because she spills the beans on my favorite hideaway restuarant. Now I'll never get in!!!

I have both this book and Revealed and by far I recommend the Revealed book. This book is ok to use as a companion guide with Revealed, but I did not find it nearly as helpful. I mainly bought the Dummy book to see if I could get a different point of view about sites, restuarants, etc. and I did in some cases, but I will be using the Revealed book as my main guide when I go back to Maui this year.

The book seems a couple of years old (although it says it's published in 2005). There are certain places that have moved or closed. However, the general idea of the book is to familiarize you with Maui which I thought it fulfilled the overall purpose. There are great tips which I corroborated with locals including good snorkeling spots, best snorkel gear, best luaus, restaurant, shops, etc. It lists out the places you SHOULD go while in Maui and suggests what to avoid and refuse. This is my first Dummies travel book and I plan to use future Dummies along with the current year's Frommer's for updated info. By the way, Cakewalk in Paia....no longer there.

This is a pretty decent book, with some good information and tips on the island. The post it not tabs are nice to mark information you want easy access to. Some of the icons (heads up, kid friendly etc) are also helpful. Beware - there is some word for word duplication with the Frommers book.

For anyone traveling to Maui, this is a decent resource. But the ultimate is Maui Revealed.

I have been in and out of two serious relationships in the last four years, unfortunately they both were with the wrong men. This past summer I decided to try online dating. In the beginning of the summer I was having little luck on my dates. However, after reading "Seven Days to Sex Appeal" and practicing the advice I have had several second and third dates with wonderful men.

While practicing to be more conscious of my body language, I realized I use to look away or down, I even believe I smiled too much. I noticed it is better to smile only when appropriate (smiling too much can make me look submissive) and focus more on eye contact. This has made me appear more intriguing and mysterious and allows the man to notice me more and keep the conversation going in the right direction. I believe the book has given me the necessary tools I needed to feel confidant and attractive. I am recommending this book to all of my girlfriends even the married ones.

The authors tell us it is important that we read the preface. So I did. Where they said they conducted Significant Research on female sex appeal - both on site in singles bars and by carefully watching a lot of Hollywood films.

The entire book is printed on a series of "wrapping paper" style pages, as another reviewer describes them. Some of the designs make it difficult to decipher the words on the page. The overdone graphics just scream "Hey, girlfriend! Check this out!" It's the publishing equivalent of an insecure woman decked out head to toe in *all* the latest trends - hair, makeup, jewelry, scarf, nails, shoes - at once.

There may be some worthwhile content, including the value of good posture and body language, but the whole package is silly. I abandoned the fight to decipher the words from the background designs on the pages less than halfway through the book.

I must be truthful. After an acrimonious divorce, I gave up on men for quite a long time. I was actually quite content working and raising my daughter. An acquaintance (with good intentions) gave me this book. At first, I was insulted. I began to browse through the book and realized it has been some time since I actually flirted with men. It is NOT like riding a bike. As I've gotten older, I realize I need to use some strategies as I no longer have the spontaneous energy that youth and beauty so graciously provide. So, I decided to try one of the tactics
at a retirement party I was invited to. Lo and behold, I managed to "flirt" and communicate my interest to one of the guests. When that worked, I decided to use some of the strategies during my daily routines.
Without going into which behaviors I chose, I can honestly say that
the guidelines helped me to meet some eligible men. Have I met Prince Charming? No. But at least I have been able to empower myself and
control the signals I now send out. After reading this book, I am less rusty in the ways of "seduction" and have some valuable tools to
change my life. I might even be willing to kiss a few frogs along the way!

Oh, I just couldn't do it! As hard as I tried, I just couldn't finish this book. About 3/4 of the way through I was done! Like many reviewers noted, the wrapping paper looking pages were too distracting and greatly interrupted the flow. Some pages were tolerable, others caused considerable eye strain. Had the pages been "normal" I probably still wouldn't have finished the book because the so-called-lessons on how to be sexy were just silly. Seven Days might be an okay read for a teenage girl who needs to learn a bit about how to carry herself and how to properly cross her legs, but for real women, with careers and families who might be looking for a little extra "something" - a little tip or trick to make her husband turn his head or raise an eyebrow, this book simply doesn't provide anything of value. The cover art is great though! 1/2 Star Rating!

I know there are many women out there who say "I am too fat / thin / tall / short" to be sexy. They think sexy is about big boobs or a thin waist, and only surgery or extreme diets will help them out.

This book is a clear explanation of why that is NOT the case. Many studies over the years have shown that men are drawn to a woman because of the attitude she projects. We can certainly all name actresses who are all of the above "problem shapes" who still come across as quite sexy. It is related to their self assurance, how they move, how they use their eyes, mouth and hands.

There are many studies, for example, that show the power and importance of "mirroring". As the book explains, mirroring is when you match your partner's vocal patterns (speed of talking, tone) as well as their movements (large, small). It affects you on a very primal level.

People react naturally to eye contact. A too sharp / steady look is predatory and makes you defensive. No eye contact at all makes you feel ignored and uncared for. It is a happy middle, where you get looks to show you matter, but not stares as if you are prey, that works best. The book goes into exactly how to achieve that.

There will be women who say "I don't want to play games! I want someone to like me for me!" But certainly those women will agree that interacting with others - men OR women - is about making the experience pleasant for both people. If you went out with a guy OR girl and took over the conversation, talking in a loud, brash voice non stop, not caring if they were interested or paying attention, that this would not be healthy. Interacting well with another human is about using friendly body language, showing interest in what they say, encouraging them to share in the conversation and so on. If a woman already knows what is in this book, then good for them! But for the MANY women who simply do not know or understand this type of information, the book is a great primer on how to interact better with others.

How about the pages on "how to walk" and "how to sit"? Again, as silly as it might seem to some, there really ARE walks and postures that project self confidence and happiness. You can easily do a study on your own. Sit on the corner of a plaza some weekend, at a cafe, and people watch. Look at the women who walk past the table. You can quickly see that a slouched, shuffling, eyes-down walk is far less "healthy looking" than one which is upright, good posture, springy step. People are naturally drawn to people who seem vibrant and happy.

It's like learning martial arts, or yoga, or any other system like that. The more you feel good about yourself, and the more you care for your health, the more it shows in your face and posture. You don't have to be thin or big busted. If you are happy, confident and healthy, that attracts people. This book helps you in that same way.

Now, there are certainly issues with the book. The entire book is told in a long narrative between "student" and "coach". It can get tedious at times to read the story in this fashion, and by its nature you only get to hear one person's problems or successes instead of talking about a variety of situations ("what if I have problems standing for long periods of time? What if I have short hair?"). Next, in an attempt to be cute, each page is printed on a different color of "wallpaper". It makes it hard to read. Finally, I do really appreciate that they used drawings rather than photos of women - women tend to be really judgmental / jealous when looking at photos. But that being said, many of the drawings just aren't well done, to illustrate the point they are trying to make. They should have used much more clear drawings, perhaps with arrows or lines pointing to the item they are trying to highlight.

The traits they brought out in the book really do work, and they really do matter - not just to men, but to other humans in general. It might seem "silly" that evolved, intelligent humans react to things like eye contact and posture - but then again, is it? We all want to be cared for, and we want to be with people who are happy. We take shortcuts in figuring these things out. We don't have the luxury of talking to each new person we pass at a party for 2 hours to determine in any level of detail what they are like. We make some quick guesses based on clothing, posture, body language and facial expressions and we go from there. It's how society has to work if we are going to have parties that last under 300 hours each :) This book helps you put your best foot forward in those situations, and to help others know if you are interested in them.

If you really don't believe in this book's message, try this experiment. Dress in baggy sweats, an old t-shirt, and don't comb your hair for your next party. Go in without looking at anyone, grab a drink, and curl up in a far corner, staring morosely at your drink, shoulders hunched. If anybody does approach you, it'll probably be a close friend wondering if you are OK. How we act and move DOES send a clear message to those around you. Learn to make sure that message is one you want to have sent.

I love Stephanie Laurens and have read (and collected) just about all of her Cynster and Bastion Club Books but honestly if I had started with this book I cant be sure if I would have become the fan I am today. Dont get me wrong its an OK book but not what I have come to expect. I can only excuse it by saying it was one of her earlier books and released through Harlequin Mills & Boon London.

From the first meeting of Harry and Lucinda they are intrigue by each other. Later after becoming intimate with her, Harry decides that they should marry but Lucinda refuses because she wants Harry to love her first. However Harry has been burned in a relationship before and refuses to risk the same thing happening again. Lucinda soon despairs that he will ever express his love and starts to accept that her love may have to be enough. Eventually Harry explains that the manner in which he acted was to show proof of his devotion and love.

I found the hero too restrained for my liking, too impassive. Yes he appoints himself as her protector and thereby shows that he does care but he refused to show any emotions, except for annoyance. He does not romance Lucinda or does anything to show she is his world and that he needs her to make his life meaningful. What he says was proof of his love seems more more like proof of his possessiveness towards Lucinda.

Conclusion: Good plot, well written but not enough passion and romance.

Like the other reviewers, I felt SL has a lot more to say than this book represents. I don't know what happened, but it lost it's momentum rather quickly. The first part was good but then something happened and then poof! The last two or three chapters were a blur because I turned the pages without reading until I came to a page that had something to add. No, this isn't a good one but I will continue to be a fan, and not judge her on one not-so-good book.

Why does Lucinda only wear blue? Why does Aunt Em, Harry and later, Lucinda (whom we are led to believe are proper ladies and gentleman) snort their way through the second half of the book?

Stephanie Laurens defintely has a way with words. She doesn't have much in the way of a story line, though, in An Unwilling Conquest. Harry's slow, drawn out "proof" of himself to Lucinda was anti-climactic to say the least. The heroine danger factor and love scenes were so mildly written it seemed as though the author didn't care to entice her reader much. And Lucinda's "will he or won't he" woes wore thin rather quickly.

I found this book was only slightly entertaining, and I know Ms. Laurens has written much better.

Stephanie Laurens' writing is easy and enjoyable. The story could have been better. I was disappointed. I just did not get that "happy feeling" in the end. Not a winner for me.

I love all Stephanie Laurens' books, and this was no exception. Only reasons I didn't give it 5 stars were I knew what to expect and I always wish her boosk were longer, since I get so involved with the characters. If you are a Laurens fan, you won't be disappointed; if you are new to her books, you should probably start with one of the earlier books and work you way up, as there are a lot of repeating characters.

this book is good... and funny at times but you can get most of these tips from cosmo. the image of a playboy bunny is based only on the three girls who wrote it and what they like/do/etc.

THE BOOK WAS GREAT. I LOVED IT AND WOULD RECOMMEND IT TO ANY CURIOUS WOMEN.

Complete waste of money. aone bunny says do this, the other contradicts. Did not learn one beauty/charm trick in here. Read Cosmo magazine for same effect. Nothing in hear you as a woman haven't heard before. i feel jipped!

The Bunny Book is a great read. Easy to relate to and although some of the tips and suggestions were common sense, reading them makes for a good reminder :)
I bought my two best friends one and passed on my book to my roomy after finishing it. You'll love it!

I love, love, love this book! While a few of the tips should be common knowledge to women, the girls present them in a fun and interesting way. Any girl with an open mind and a sense of humor would enjoy it!

The Wyoming Kid by Debbie Macomber
Harlequin American Romance # 1121 - July 2006

Letty's brother Lonny is a former legendary rodeo star, The Wyoming Kid. He was smart and left the rodeo circuit while his bones were still good, and returned to help on the ranch. When his parents died, he became partners with his neighbour and best friend Chase. When Letty returns to Wyoming, she befriends a newcomer to their town; Joy and eagerly tries to match make Joy and Lonny together. But sparks fly when Joy and Lonny are together and these are not the good kind. Some how every time they are together, one or the other provokes a temper flare and suddenly things get said that never were meant to be said. That they are both stubborn leads to a lot of frustration and heartache.

This was a fun read. The clash of wills and tempers kept this story rolling along with some wonderful laugh out loud moments. Lonny sometimes came across as immature, but he soon grew out of that and realized that he'd been acting like a jackass. After the last three emotionally charged stories that I've read by Ms. Macomber, this one was pleasantly lighter. A very enjoyable read :D


read also the prequel ... Denim and Diamonds - SSE # 570 - December 1989

It was fun to revisit the community that was introduced in Denim and Diamonds! This follow-up story was written 18 years later, and more closely reflects the skills and values Debbie Macomber has honed over the years. Lonny is much less hostile character in this story. While still maintaining his basic gruffness, he also showed a softer romantic side by following his sister's advice in trying to woo Joy, as well as in his mentoring of Tom. I like the way his character consistently showed growth. By gradually and progressively coming to his own realizations throughout the story, his redemption seemed so much more believable then if he made a more sudden conversion (as Chase did in the first story). I genuinely liked this town and could see why both Letty and Joy felt compelled to stay there. And maybe another follow-up story is in order for Tom and Michelle!

I enjoyed this good clean book, so many have so much sex and violence that they are no longer enjoyable, it was clean and a fast enjoyable read.

A quick, enjoyable read. I loved the characters and the interactions between them. I love how the author doesn't just focus on the two main characters. Their friends and family are an important part of the story. I also like how you feel you are a part of the small town the story is set in.

This book was better than I expected, upbeat read and flows from page to page. Good storyline and Romance.

I have been searching for a really good book explaining the law of attraction and what it really means. this book hit it on the nail. it goes beyond the law of attraction and tells you how to be a better person while practicing the law of attraction. remember it's not all about wanting and getting it's about being a good person and achieving more by practicing "good spirited" things.

Dr. Lisa Love has lovingly written a book that is a soulful, wise companion to The Secret. She believes that we must go beyond a shallow take on the Law of Attraction. This book contains wisdom and depth and as an executive and life coach who teaches clients about the Law of Attraction linked with spirituality, I recommend it. I heard Dr. Love on NPR's New Dimensions radio and several of her quotes were so memorable that I have repeated them to my coaching clients. With compassion she talks about how unkind it is to those who are ill to tell them that they created it through the Law of Attraction, although she acknowledges a strong body/mind connection. Dr. Love spoke of how a terrible tragedy to Christopher Reeves ended up bringing so much good to the world because of his choice to become a spokesman. She urges us to approach the Law of Attraction with love, wisdom and our higher selves.
Michelle Prosser, author of Excuse Me, Your God is Waiting, Love Your God * Create Your Life * Find Your True Self
Excuse Me, Your God Is Waiting: Love Your God * Create Your Life * Find Your True Self

Every once in a while, you come across a book, dvd, song or poem that changes your life and your perception on things for the better. This - however - is not one of those books.

When I first watched the Secret DVD, I was absolutely intrigued and inspired by the stories and teachings. It wet my lips and left me thirsty to learn more and go beyond the Secret. I purchased a copy of The Science of the Mind, The Answer, Harmonic Wealth (I love you James - but this book is terrible) and others. I eventually came across Beyond The Secret - quickly flipped through it - and thought it would be the Answer I was looking for.

It wasn't.

This book is no different than hundreds of other books I have read which were rooted in Christian theology. See - the author comes from a Christian background, and it's clear that its doctrines have left a stain on her sleeve. She speaks of "Spirit" the same way a Pastor would speak of God, and she mentions "Ego" the same way a Pastor might mention 'the flesh' or 'sin'. If the author believes in Christian ways - that's fine, but she should come out and say so. There's no need to write a book that teaches Christian views and doctrines but changes the name to make it more worldly....is there?

In short, this book leaves much to be desired. There is conflicting information, and Lisa herself admits...

"Who doesn't want a home to live in? Surely that request shouldn't be denied by Spirit. However, one reason I am currently motivated to write this book is because I don't have a residence and am sequestered at a friend's home, where I am massively focused on being productive because I hae no other choice. Wait a minute! Does the fact that I don't have my own home during this transitional time help me to be more productive and of service to a higher purpose that I am only beginning to understand this moment?"

So basically - she wrote a self help book because
1. The self that needed help was HER self
2. She was bored and didn't have anything better to do

The author also has this way of making you feel guilty for wanting what you want. She asks you to take a look at your intentions and motives for wanting the things you want - but then reminds you that there are people out there who don't have as much as you do. I'm all for charity, helping the homeless and others who are less fortunate - but I'm also for loving and caring for myself! If I can't take care of myself, how can I take care of others? Sure - intentions can be important - but dang it, sometimes I want a candy bar just cause I want a candy bar! I'm not buying a candy bar wondering if it will save the whales, free slaves or conquer world peace. I'm buying it because my evil, selfish ego wants me to have it. This is the gist of the book.

So - if you're one who is trying to escape religiousity or 'guilt based religions' as another Amazon reviewer put it - then you'll be able to sympathize with the author, though you may not necessarily agree with her.

If you're wanting to learn more about the Secret, laws of the universe and that sort of thing - then be aware that this is not the right book. The author doesn't even agree with the Secret and often gives her argument as to why.

This book seemed to be written from a very traditional perspective as opposed to a metaphysical or New Thought perspective.

Thank you Lisa Love for writing this book, without which I could not fully appreciate the works of Esther and Jerry Hicks. I gave it a two star only because of the potential of the unread portion, although I'll never know.

The first reviewer was very gentle her choice of phrases: . . ."you might feel this is grazing on your set beliefs. . ." Boy is that an understatement in my case.

I do believe that feeling your way to abundance, whether material or spiritual, is the fundamental principal behind manifesting your desires. Focusing on the positive side of everything no matter what is going on around you is key to this. I also think that a natural result of becoming a more positive person will make you more compassionate, loving and spiritual and you will naturally help others more by being that way.

What left me cold in the very first chapter are the contradictions made by the author.

EXERPT: Spirit encompasses everything that is! Everything lives within it and is a part of it. It has been called "God," "Allah," "The Force," and a multitude of other names. Essentially you are Spirit, and Spirit is you!

That said, the author goes on to make this statement only two pages later:

"Remember the law of attraction is neutral. Though you can use it to get whatever you wish for, it doesn't always give you what Spirit wishes for you."

WHAT!?!

Spirit is me and I am spirit right? So, if this is true, (and I firmly believe that it is) it is not even possible for Spirit to desire something that I myself do not desire and vice versa. In fact, spirit can not even distinguish between the reality that I imagine and the reality that I am living so how can it make choices for me? Spirit is not something outside of me that controls me and tells me what I should and should not desire or how it should be used. The job of "Spirit" is to respond to the thoughts I am thinking and make that my reality.

The word "ego" is also referred to quite a bit and the author goes on to discuss her belief that we are hear to serve others and that those with money have a moral obligation to take care of those who don't. But, if I am the creator of my world and I have money because I manifested it in my life than would it not also be true that those who do not have money have manifested that reality into their lives? My having money, a place to live, and other nice things is not depriving someone else of the opportunity to manifest those things in their life. Seems to me our obligation would be to teach them how but then again that would be forcing our beliefs on someone else.

The author is right about the law of attraction being neutral. You will manifest that which you focus upon the most and if your focus is on the lack of something rather than the abundance of it then you will continue to manifest the lack of it until you change the way you think about it.

Besides the multitude of tangents the author seems to go off on, I found it difficult to get past her own personal bias toward those who have manifested material abundance, good looking spouses (as she puts it, but isn't beauty in the eye of the beholder?), expensive cars, and houses on the beach in their lives. She did talk about being jilted by a lover who chose a woman of means over her. WOW! That explains a few things right there!

I don't imagine there are many people in this world who never think about having any of those things and what's wrong with it? Money brings freedom and having it is not depriving someone else of it. It does not mean that people who have it lead irresponsible or lackluster lives nor does it mean that we should all go live as monks in order to curb the ego from wanting it! Anyone who thinks money isn't important in this world is kidding themselves.

I found the book "Ask and It Is Given" by Jerry and Esther Hicks a far more compassionate read.

Easily understandable writings compared to a lot of the literature out there for the Law of Attraction. Highly recommended to those that liked The Secret.

Not very impressed with this book. It was a very short read most of the book pages were filled with affirmations. Not much to it.

All these seem to say the same thing. Not much meat to the dialog.

I'm so glad I purchased this book. It is a quick, but thorough, look at The Law of Attraction. After all buzz surrounding The Secret, it's nice to have someone to give it to us plain, straight and simple. Ehryck F. Gilmore does exactly that. I'm not sure what version the young lady refers to, but I bought an original copy and it has none of the typos that she mentions. Great book, great read. Everyone must have it.

Naleighna Kai, author of Every Woman Needs a Wife and Speak it into Existence

This volume would have carried a lot more weight if the proofreaders had done their jobs correctly. The many typos detracted from the sometimes useful text. The TV show Bewitched became Bewitch and near the end of the book a page just ended in the middle of a sentence. The next page started a new sentence and thought. Overall I liked what he had to say but I couldn't get past the errors. It just lost its authority with all the sloppiness.

I have read many of Brenda Jackson's other books and thought that I couldn't go wrong with this one. It just shows that you can't judge a book by it's author. This was terrible. The story line was unbelievable, you really need an imagination for this one. It was torture from beginning to end.

Brenda Jackson has done it again. She is a pioneer author who can take a storyline and do incredible things with them. I'm as impressed with this book as with her previous titles. The release dates for Brenda's novels are always marked on my calendar as soon as I receive her newsletter. I want them on the same day they hit the bookstore. This is a must read book.

Ms. Jackson does it again! I am an avid reader of her books and I have enjoyed all the ones I have read thus far. This book was no exception. The only thing I did not get was the Texas Cattlemen Club angle but the ONLY reason for this was b/c I haven't read the other books in the serious. Still it did not take away from the story. This was classic man and women care for each other but they keep it to themselves. But once they were honest with themselves then love came right on in. I am big on the "tugging at the heart strings" factor, in this book it was Mark having to deal with his past, his brother's death and the his role in his niece's life (caregiver vs father figure). I enjoyed it very much and read it in a day!

This is the 3rd in the newest Texas Cattleman's Club series and was really good but not quite up to par with the first two in the series.

Mark inherits his families' ranch and wealth but his memories of childhood are bitter. His father was overly strict and unloving and Mark is further traumatized by the murder of his wife while he was oversees in the military. He now runs a self defense studio for women. He has vowed never to allow himself to have emotions for another person but then when his brother and sister in law are killed, he is named guardian of his baby niece Erika. Mark is having trouble keeping a nanny and he decides that his dependable Administrative Assistant Alli would be the perfect nanny. When he makes her an offer she can't refuse, she moves in to take care of Erika.

Alli is torn by Mark's offer...she has secretly been in love with him for 2 years now but the money he is offering could help her pay her sisters college expenses and buy a new car. When Alli realizes Mark is physically attracted to her she is surprised. Alli is an unexperienced twenty something virgin who dreams of a loving husband and lots of kids. Mark makes it clear if anything happens between them, it will be strictly physical. He believes he will be like his father and keeps himself emotionally detached from Alli and Erika, even though it is obvious how much he loves his niece.

This is a really decent story but the problem is if you have read the first two books in the series you will realize Mark and Jacob are pretty much the same character (unloving father leads to a relationship phobia son)...also, there is a little bit of a conflict between the books in the series...in one of the earlier books, Alli helps her friend with a sexy look and gives her condoms to take on her date, but in this book, Alli is a virginal girl who doesn't have a clue...I love these series and like how they get different authors to do the books so they remain fresh, but they should do their homework to make sure each story is original. However, it really is pretty good.

It was a good book. A very quick read. It is something different from the book that are being but out to day. A kinder story, with love, not shooting and cheating.

This book is unfortunately limited in scope (to domestic airports) and out of date; things change fast as travelers are spending more time at airports. Not very useful any more.

This book is great. I've used it a lot and it is very helpful. Each chapter is a different airport. There is information on the layout, shopping, dining,airline gates, relaxing, websites, children's activities, and more. She even mentions some of the best places to eat and shop. I live in Pittsburgh (and the Pittsburgh airport is in this book) it used to be US Airways' biggest hub. Then two years ago US airways cut 400 flights!!!! I was mad, so now I have to transfer because they cut so many non-stop destinations. Then I saw this book and I thought differently I am actually excited to transfer because I can visit a new place and I can explore the airport and use the suggestions in this book! She has great suggestions and best kept secrets. Some airports included are: Amsterdam, Atlanta, Chicago O' Hare, Cleveland, Detroit, Las Vegas McCarran,London Gatwick and Heathrow airports, Los Angeles, Miami, Newark, New York Kennedy and Laguardia, Orlando, both Paris airports, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, San Francisco, Toronto, and Washington Dulles and National. If you frequently fly with an airline that has connecting flights through one of these airports, this would be a good book for you.The only other thing that I think could have been added is a map of the airport. Overall this is a perfect book for anyone, from business travelers to families on vacation.

This book is highly practical. It is essentially a guidebook to many important airports and the services and amenities they offer for the delayed traveler. It is a unique and clever book. It is clearly written and easy to use. I hope to see more guides of this type from this lucent author.

This book is very good. Gave great information about airports. I loved this book while I was in Honolulu because I found so many things to do waiting for my 2 and 1/2 hour connection to Maui.

Very disappointing and of little practical use. Where are the many important international airports?
