kalanamak Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/search-handle-url/ref=ntt_athr_dp_sr_1?_encoding=UTF8&search-type=ss&index=books&field-author=Quick%20Easy%20Guides Get a load of some of the titles. The first one has 4 stars, but both reviews are of a Rex Stout novel. All the rest that are rated get one and only one star and each reviewer is more hacked off than the next. I imagine some lonely guy who took a "5 steps to financial freedom" course at a local Holiday Inn for far too much money trawling about the internet putting together these guides on evenings and weekends.

Jean in Newcastle Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 I think Amazon got their reviews tacked to the wrong books there. I like Rex Stout too, but I doubt he ever wrote about nutrition - except in relation to the huge meals that Nero Wolfe ate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellyndria Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 The titles! :lol: I can't stop looking! (I am easily amused at this time of night...) They never end, there's page after page after page of ridiculous titles and it keeps getting worse.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melissel Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 I only got this far before I had to stop: How To Ride a Unicycle: Unicycles Aren't Just for Circus Folk, You Know... :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaxMom Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 The unicycle book must have amazing information on the blank pages - there are only two used copies available... FROM $71.96! I like the one that wanted information on glass blowing, but the pages described throwing a "proper party". :lol: At least that one wasn't more than $5.

PineFarmMom Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Here was my favorite title: How To Hire a Motorhome in New Zealand: Tips On Planning Your Next Wonderful New Zealand Motorhome Trip I was :lol: over that one. How bizarre!! At least I know there's a worthless guide out there for everything I may have never thought of learning about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
