This review is from: Would You Rather...? Overstuffed: Over 1500 Absolutely Absurd Dilemmas to Ponder (Paperback)

We bought this book as a Christmas gift for our 14 yr old little sister. We thought that since it seemed to be the original book (rather than an offshoot or special mature addition) it would be perfect for any audience. We were wrong. It is filled with a lot of crude sexual references and suggestive (borderline pornographic) drawings/illustrations. It's also not so easy to just rip out a chapter, nearly every section has a touch of it not to mention 2 full chapters dedicated to sex. I do not recommend this book for anyone under the age of 18. This is not a family-oriented book. It is very adult oriented.

I thought this would be a good conversation starter or fun time passer for the holidays with family. MOST of the questions I saw when flipping through the book were inappropriate for that kind of setting. If you're hanging out with friends and drinking on the back porch it might be slightly more appropriate but on the whole was very disappointed with this. I should have paid more attention to the other reviews that said the same thing so I wouldn't have to deal with trying to return this!

OK, apparently I missed the bus when these books became popular. I must have been off raising a family or something.

The basic premise of this book is that "The Deity" has come down from on high and presented you with a choice. You MUST make a choice and cannot just opt out. The options presented are never as easy as say, "Would you rather have your eyes poked out or inherit 100 million dollars?" That would be way too simple. The situations here are more like, "You're gonna get your eyes poked out. Would you rather have it done with a sharp stick or a dull one?" Dang that's a good one! Not in the book but you get the idea.

This book is broken up into numerous chapters, each addressing a topic of "Would you rather..." questions. There are several chapters on sex and innumerable questions scattered about the various categories touch on sexual situations. If this bothers you, pass on this book since you will get your sensibilities stomped on!

This is the party and drinking person's version of "The Book of Questions." Not as deep but a lot of fun.

At the next family reunion, I know what book is going to be pulled out!
