Ah good -- a review that has substance!

[bountifulpots.livejournal.com]

That is a beautiful thing. :D

I appreciate how the reviewer has avoided Amazon's Review Removal Crew -- a lesson to us all. Make the first paragraph straight.

OMG!! That is the BEST THING EVER!

I have to screen capture it before it goes away.

That many people doing comments in the spirit of the review is amazing, I only saw maybe 3 that had issues with it.

. . . dismayed by my overall personal street value of roughly $15.

Heh.

Funny. I think it's fake, though. His spelling is too good.

Awesome. I have absolutely no interest in reading The Secret, but I can see myself reading a book by that reviewer.

I ordered the book but it was never delivered. The day it was supposed to arrive a UPS man named Marcus rang my doorbell. He shivved me when I answered the door. He left me bleeding in the doorway and drove off, muttering something about "not even worth the Pruno."

It's all so confusing.

The comments many people are leaving are almost as amusing as the original post. This is my favorite so far

I found this review very unhelpful. I recently took a long journey on a pleasure yacht which was overtaken by pirates. Having read Ari's review, I quickly raced down into my stateroom to recover my copy of The Secret and turned to Chapter 6. Alas, no shiv, whereby I was shortly apprehended by the Captain and his fearsome crew. Apparently, in some books the shiv is embedded in Chapter 7, I was informed as I walked the plank. I currently reside in the belly of a huge whale.
