I can't wait to buy this, but if anybody is thinking of downloading the sample to preview the writing style, you only get title pages, copyrights, blank pages and table of contents in the sample. No actual story content. Same for Labyrinth and The Storyteller.

Still buying them, but wish I hadn't wasted time with a sample.

I have been in a wonderful marriage for over 3 years now, and while I thought maybe this book would help us to dig deeper into our personalties and marriage. It did not. I got the feeling I was filling out one of those annoyingly cute online surveys. I had to answer many times N/A, no opinion, etc., because almost all of this book only applies to relationships that are dramatic, new, dysfunctional or completely clueless about their partner. Also there are questions that are not modern enough. Like growing up in a single parent home (I.E., only the mother/father around during your childhood) I did go through the book somewhat before I bought it and was please with the few pages I did look at. But, after filling out half of this book I am feeling like I wasted my money and time. Personally, I feel I could have done a better job. I am a novice writer, and I actually may publish a book along these lines. Hopefully, I won't leave my readers feeling empty wallet-wise, and longing for better content. Really you would be better off finding a free survey (most likely online) and filling that out instead of wasting your money.

Didnt think much of this book. Infact I wished I had not wasted my money.

The smallest possible sample arrived - with no credit towards future purchases and too too small to determine how good and/or not good it is.

I really expected so much more from this book. I enjoyed the sample, but was sorely disappointed in the total read. First and foremost, this is a romance book. Which is fine if that's what you're looking for. I was not. Nowhere does it hint that that is the primary plot and movement in the book. It's not listed under any romance genres and it isn't mentioned in the blurb or preview.

I felt like there were a lot of weak points in the book as well. More typos than I enjoy seeing, but also there were some strong secondary characters who just fell apart in the end for no apparent reason. Seemed like their very nature changed just to make the story tie together easier. Felt lazy.

It wasn't all bad. I did like the dialog and the world building. It all felt natural and perfectly paced. And as far as being a romance is concerned, the hero is very well written. You'll probably love the main char as well. She's pretty spot on for what the story calls for. I wish I could have followed her to the next book.

Unfortunately, I won't be heading to book 2 of this series. I honestly felt like I was reading a weak historical romance with shifters. It's a neat concept, but I wanted what the book was selling. Not what I bought.

Maybe I got a sample? I don't think so; it's a very short story. I'd have an entire book,though. I expected more.

I wish that I would have totally bypassed this purchase and thrown my money out the window I would have enjoyed it more

I found the background music distracting in sample I got. Won't buy it for that reason.

Takes 20 minutes to read and I wish I had those 20 minutes back. First part of the title is appropriate.

I should have listened to all the other reviews, but my curiosity got the best of me. While she does pose some very interesting questions, her "experiments" do not satisfy the demand for proof. In her own words she tries to validate her lack of evidence leading to a short pamphlet (not a book), "There are times in history when the recording of events may not take a large number of pages or pints of ink, but rather that it be recorded precisely and accurately which is what counts. Certainly, this is one of those times.", but only suffices to show she has not met her own goal with a severe lack of details and precision.
This pamphlet is severely lacking in details, explanations and proofs to validate her observations and "experimentation". Although, I am very curious to replicate her experiments, as best I can with her lacking details, to determine if I can obtain the same results she claims to have achieved.
Do not waste your time or money on this pamphlet

I flipped thru this entire book in less than 10 minutes.  No samples to work from, not really very helpful.

Great sampler but not as advertised- received Cambridge knight instead of riviera...twice! Cambridge knight is so horrible, I wouldn't even use it as an air freshener in my bathroom

I thought I'd be instantly reminded of the strippers that I have been entertained with when I first sprayed it, but I was sadly disappointed. I think a cocoa nut butter lotion mixed with baby powder would better remind me. This bottle might be what the classier strippers smell like. I guess I need to change my establishment of choice.

I bought the album to get one song, "Beautiful Day," which is the only worthy song on the album. If only I had known about a certain magazine that included this one track on their sampler cd. I could have  saved myself some money.

Didn't realize it was a sample. I feel like that should be in the product title or in bold somewhere.

I'm not complaining that I bought the book. I'm complaining that I had to spend about 2 hours reading something that could've been easily summed up in 5 pages. Out of respect of the author I won't go into detail.

Also, most of the info I kind of already knew from general experience and assumptions. All this book did was validate it.

In the end I, all I got out of this book was more inspiration to continue my journey on writing music.

Clearly is guy is trying to cash in on a natural curiosity of the times.  I feel like a fool for paying for this, read it in 3 minutes and feel I've wasted time. Do yourself a favor a look elsewhere.
