When I first heard of this book, I thought I have got to get one! I did, I actually got 2! One for myself and another for my daughter who is also a ClayMate Fan. I think this is a must have for anyone's ClayMate collection. The one thing about this particular book I really liked is the way the Chapters are separated. The book takes you back to Clay's first Audition on AI2, and ends with a wonderful recap of the 2004 Tour. There are very unique and interesting quiz's, and also included are web-sites to the lucritive cyber-space of the ClayNation! The ClayMate book also offers many tips for newcomers of the ClayNation AND also Top Ten's ranging from learned behaviors; sayings and a top-ten hint for those than want to hide their Clay addiction! The Appendix and the Glossary offer a wonderful over-view of every term in the Clay dictionary that is frequently used, and it's meaning. It is clear to me that Nicmike and Claytripper have nailed us to a Tee! All I can offer as advice is: If you think you are a ClayMate, You need to sign up, honey! As Clay says, and with this book, you will have all the know-how of how to do this, and where to begin. This is a really great little gift to us all, I have read this over and over, and each time, I laugh and laugh! I LOVE IT! ~~PJ

First and foremost, I would like to thank Nicmike and Claytripper, for writing this wonderful book for all the Claymates. BRAVO!!!

I LOVED "The Claymate Handbook" IT TO PIECES... It makes you laugh, it's extremely witty, and most of all it makes you think of CLAY!!!

This is a must have for all the Claymates who love Clay Aiken.
It has a chapter dedicated to all the major Clay Fan Sites. It tells you how to Clayvert your friends and family. There are concert recaps from the American Idol 2 Tour. A biography on Clay and much, much more!!!

NOW..... you've heard my recap of the "The Claymate Handbook" and I would so recommend you all to go purchase at least 1 copy TODAY... It breaks down all the information you would love to know about being a Claymate!! Also, half of the profits will be donated to a Children's Charity. (Believe that is still ago with the Charity.) We all know that is what Clay would want. Give a little and enjoy alot... this well written, hilarious look into the lives of all of us......Clay's Claymates!!!

Spread your Angel wings, buy a copy for yourself and a friend, and if you want to Clayvert someone.. this book is such a helpful guide... for every Clay fan at HEART!!!

Thank you so very much,
A Very Impressed Claymate!!!

All i can say is, if you are a fan of Clay Aiken, this is a Must read!
It is thoughtful, humorous, informative and has some wonderful suggestions, such as the top 10 places to hide Clack from your boyfriend/husband...(luckily for me, my hubby adores Clay almost as much as i do, so i have never had to use them...yet...LOL!!)
So what are you waiting for? GET THIS BOOK NOW!!!!!

Although I have been part of the Clay Aiken cyberworld for over a year now, I have always considered myself an unfangirl. What I loved about this book is that it explains in a funny way every type of Clay Aiken fans as well as the different boards you can find online. It is a witty look into what it takes to be a Claymate and found myself laughing while reading this book. It is a must have!

The Claymate Handbook is an absolute must have for anyone who calls themself a Clay fan. It captures the spirit of the Claymates- their wide range of personalities, the culture of the various online message boards, and their loving craziness in general. It includes all of Nicmike's first recaps during "The Summer of Clay," and trust me, these are wonderful to reread to remember "the talk of the time!" It's really the perfect mark of Clay's first year in the spotlight and the journeys of the fans who have been with him every step of the way and are with him for the long haul.

I read this book cover to cover as soon as I received it. I laughed out loud on every page. It's a great read, filled with fun stories, quizes, top ten lists, etc. It's also a great book for a friend or relative of a Clay Aiken fan, or anyone who wants to understand Clay's amazingly supportive fanbase!

This is such a great handbook. I laughed till I cried. I also loved the serious part at the end. Well worth the money!!

This book captures what it means to be a Claymate! I've given it as gifts to all my friends and we can't stop laughing.

I just found another book Clay's fans should read. It's called GIFTED and it's absolutely amazing. The author kirkmartinbooks.com is donating $2.00 from every book to Clay's Foundation, and it's a thrilling but heartwarming story. These are must haves for those who LOVE CLAY!!

This is a great book for novice and experienced Clayfans alike. It's quick witted style and snappy prose are a delight. If you love Clay you will adore the Claymate Handbook. Put it right there in a place of honor on your bookshelf - right next to that autographed Rolling Stone! If you don't have this book - click on the buy it now button - it's that good. Enjoy!

This book is SO great!!! The authors are SO funny! I've read this like 10 times!!! I love it SOOOO much! This is a must have for a Claymate!!!
