5.0 out of 5 stars A must buy for any person who enjoys lists and trivia October 27, 2009

By Blogball

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

Any person who loves trivia and enjoys information in list form will love this book. The lists are written by author and editor Jamie Frater and several other list writers that are fans of the Listverse website. This makes for a very entertaining read because the style of writing is different from one list to another. I recommend this book highly to anyone that loves learning new facts and enjoys lists from every different category under the sun.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fun and engaging book for trivia buffs November 18, 2009

By R. C Sheehy

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

This is a very entertaining and interesting book chock full of a wide variety of top ten lists spread through a number of categories. I find it hard to say which part I found most interesting. I think it will depend on which areas you the reader find most interesting. I liked that I wasn't as interested in some lists as I was in others. That shows me that a wide variety of readers will find this book to be fun and engaging.

Read it because you want something light and fun to enjoy. That's what I did!
