I did enjoy this book and it was a quick read. However, a lot of the wisdom pointed out was sort of redundant. They seemed to be things that everyone says but at the same time knows that it isn't true. There were some things that were interesting to read about and I am happy with those.

It doesn't take long to read and I don't think it costs that much so if you like books like i before e and tv shows like QI I think this would be very interesting for you. If you gain nothing but a few useless facts to bring up at random times then you are still gaining something.

Nice easy quick read.

I always knew it is never too cold to snow. Now I have the proof if anyone ever come out with that nonsense!
