Book Reviews of J.K. Lasser's Your Income Tax 2007: For Preparing Your 2006 Tax Return

Book Review: Very thick book is a mile wide and an inch deep
Summary: 2 Stars

This guide has a lot of bulk but not that much substance. Sure, there's a good amount of superficial information that will be helpful to 99% of "straightforward" situations, but if you run your own business, invest in rental real estate, etc, this book will do nothing for you.

You can get a lot of useful information for free from the IRS publications website, and it covers the topic material in more depth and with greater detail. Lasser's guide does add a bit of insight with regard to recent tax dispute rulings and how that might affect the interpretation of some of the IRS codes, but there isn't that much really useful in-depth information.

I thought the Lasser book would be more comprehensive. It certainly is thick enough, but once you look inside its clear that they've spread a modest amount of material very thinly. Just my opinion of course, but for my real estate investment questions, it was absolutely useless to me and I had to go elsewhere. John T. Reed's Agressive Tax Guide is a resource I could recommend for that type of info.

Rather than buy this book, I'd start with IRS Publication 17 "Your Income Tax" and go from there.
