Book Reviews of Halloween: The Best of Martha Stewart Living
Book Review: Not for the die-hard Martha fan!
Summary: 4 Stars
This book is an excellent source for elegant party ideas and recipes. However, if you have subscribed to Martha Stewart Magazines, you already have seen these ideas. I much prefer the book, however, so I can throw out all those old Halloween issues!
Book Review: Book or glorified magazine?
Summary: 3 Stars
I found the contents of this "book" to be terrific. It is full of lovely pictures and creative, scary, unique ideas. Some of them are very labor intensive, but anyone familiar with Martha would expect that. On content alone I probably would have given it 4 1/2 or 5 stars. However, I was extremely disappointed in the format. When I opened the box my first thought was, "I don't remember ordering a magazine." That's really what this is. No, it does not have any ads and none of those annoying little subscription cards fell out of the pages but those are about the only differences. It is no thicker than a standard magazine, and in fact, not as thick as most of my issues of Marth Stewart Living. Because it is a book that should get a lot of use over the years, I can't help but expect that it will look dog-eared very quickly. I would much rather have spent a little more and gotten a hard cover version or at least a thicker book with smaller, sturdier pages.Book Review: There is nothing new in this book.

I love Martha's Halloween Ideas. So much that I bought the special Halloween issue last year and also that I've saved old October issues of her magazine. This book is a compilation of those things. I was hoping for some new ideas, but this book had none. If you haven't seen her ideas before, this book would be great. I feel like it was a waste of money for me.Book Review: Nice ideas although a bit pricey
Summary: 3 Stars
This is a good book but I couldn't help thinking that with some time I could find all these ideas online. But if you want a Halloween idea book for your holiday collection this is a great book and Martha's ideas are timeless and fresh. I don't regret buying it.Book Review: What you expect.
