Book Reviews of All About Us
Book Review: Great way to bond, casually.
Summary: 4 Stars
I liked this "journal". My beau and myself filled it out together. The questions are simple to answer, but do require some thought. I learned things about him, and he about me...that we didn't know. This book will bring couples closer. Makes for a fun, at home, date night.Book Review: Fun "connecting" tool
Summary: 4 Stars
My husband and I went through this together and learned a lot about each other--for better or for worse. Some of the questions didn't really "fit" us, so we changed some of them to suit. Fun approach!Book Review: Great wedding shower gift
Summary: 4 Stars
I gave this as a wedding shower gift and it went over very well. Lots of questions for the couple to answer on their honeymoon and beyond.Book Review: A good gift...
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this as a shower gift and the couple loved it. It is an interesting book to write about your relationship.Book Review: I would NEVER give this as a gift (but we still had fun filling it out)
Summary: 3 Stars
Problem #1: This book is only for couples who both have a great sense of humor AND the ability to let things go. I completely agree with the other reviewers that some of the questions are going to make you uncomfortable (this book could start a fight... or just as easily leave your honey having to lie to you about his/her fantasies, ex-lovers, etc). But when we got to those type of questions we didn't want to know the answers to, we simply agreed to skip them or rewrote the question ourselves to make it more suitable to us.
Problem #2: is there are a lot of repetitive questions in this book; the author didn't even try to re-worded some of them!
Problem #3: once completed, this isn't the type of book you're going to want your mother-in-law or kids someday to open and read. There are many questions that probe into your dirty little secrets, so the book will have to be hidden away with your other naughty bedroom accessories.
Problem #4: After being together for 5 plus years, we only learned one or two new things about one another. He already knows which friend of his I think is the cutest, how I feel about his family, which celebrity I would "leave him" for, how many guys I've dated, etc.
But with that said, I'd probably still recommend it to about HALF the couples I know... but I would NEVER give this as book as a gift (unless you feel their a terrible match anyway and want them to break up)!!! It was still entertaining and we had fun filling it out over the course of several long car trips.
