This has to be the funniest lampoon I have ever read. I had to pick myself up off the floor several times while my friend read it to me in her soothing indian accent. They should give these away while you are waiting in the DMV...or the post office!

You'll laugh, you'll cry because you're laughing so hard. (Unfortunately, most of the books on the market -- being unintentionally funny -- will find themselves lampooned here.) The perfect complement to all those other goofy Feng Shui books people seem so willing to buy.

"How to drastically improve your life by basically moving stuff around -- honest." Never were truer words said, especially when you look at most of the Feng Shui books on the market (Karen Rauch Carter's latest disaster, for instance). The Scotsman newspaper claims that "feng shui" is Chinese for "throwing things out" (and that includes your kids, your trash, and your husband). There's so much to lampoon with most Feng Shui books that if you have even a slight acquaintance with any of them you will howl with delight at the material in this one. Definitely one to recommend!

This is one of the funniest things I ever read. Witty in a British sort of way. (It's not offensive either, unless you're stuffy - I've organised a few things in my apt around feng shui. & a few according to Wrong Shui - in fact the architect who designed my building was probably a practitioner.)

Maybe I was unclear as to what I was buying (into?) here, but this book was a real disappointment.

Truly little, with fairly juvenile humour, as far I'm concerned this book is only suitable for toilet-side reading material or, if really stuck, a stocking filler. But giving it a miss altogether would not leave a huge gap in your life.

I bought this book, based on the two reviews that had been posted here, to give to a freind that practices Feng Shui. Thank God I read it first. Feng Shui IS funny and would make a great subject for a truly funny book. The book, Wrong Shui, is not that book. In other words, the concept of a funny book about Feng Shui is great. Through lack of finesse this book simply offends.
