If you're a curious person, this is absolutely for you
I am pretty much the most curious person, ever. I have so much unnecessary information stored in my brain — it's ridiculous. This book works amazingly well for people like me. It has so many random knowledge pieces, some might say it's too random, but those people probably don't know why we're not allowed to use cell phones on airplanes, or about celebrities and their hilarious phobias. This book would make you seem like the most annoying know-it-all, yet smartest and most credible person in every social, family and work gathering. Just... Don't be annoying. Use your powers for good, not evil. This book is highly recommended for knowledge-seekers and lovers, and of course, to list lovers as well. (People who enjoy websites like Listverse and cracked would enjoy this book very much) This is also a great gift for just about anyone, and a great coffee table book.

It was ok!
This book is rich with a vast amount of information..but to be quite honest, I just found a lot of the topics not interesting.

My husband couldn't put it down
My husband LOVES the Mental Floss magazines. He has several of their books as well, and when he received this one he couldn't put it down. Their books are always full of fun, interesting information. Can't wait to see what else they come out with!

Too Long — ( ? )
Books like this are enjoyable enough is short dosages, but this became tedious, even when attempting to spread it out over several days ( ! )

Gave this book as a gift and it was thoroughly enjoyed. Along the same lines as 'Uncle John's Bathroom Readers', it contains interesting facts and tidbits.
