Book Review: Save your money
Summary: 1 Stars

The first book in the series, while still stuffed full of Scientology BS, is still a worthwhile read.

But Twist 2 merely re-hashes the same material with even more silly bullet points and definitions of common terms that your average pre-school child knows. If you like being talked down to as if you had a 3rd-grade reading level you might like the simplistic writing style that reminds one of a really bad Powerpoint presentation aimed at training new employees about the company's sexual harassment policies.
