5.0 out of 5 stars Ice Breaker HEAVEN!, April 10, 2000

By	"elle26" (Wayne, Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews

I brought this book w/ me on a trip to Florida a few weeks ago...My friend and I made a brand new friend on the plane w/ this book...went out to dinner w/ some 'new' friends when we got down there..I brought the book and it provided hours (about 4) of entertainment for all of us...We all got to know each other UNBELIEVABLY! (my friend's grandparents who we were staying w/ loved it SO MUCH we bought them a copy) In addition...I started dating someone when I got back home (to Phila) and I brought the book on our 1st official date and we had a BLAST with it - I now know things that I might have never, ever asked or had the guts to delve into...GREAT WAY TO GET TO KNOW SOMEONE or PEOPLE in a group....

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for company., August 18, 2004

By	C. K. Ogi (NW MO USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I really enjoy this book for it's ability to start group conversations around more than the latest movie you saw or plans for next week.

This book has tons of very different, thought provoking questions varying in depth, but really can stimulate good conversations, or simply getting to know people better. Generally testing the limits of morality, and personal views of what boudries can and can't be crossed, it makes for interesting discussion, and you will often find yourself getting way off track as your conversations take surprising turns from the original questions.

A terrific end table book, because it's impossible for guests not to pick it up and start asking away.

5.0 out of 5 stars Define your boundaries, November 7, 2001

By	Ildi J. Dihen "Max's mom" (Campbell, CA. USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Use this book as entertainment, as a conversation piece, or as a tool to take a look into the depths of your soul. One can learn surprising amounts by answering the seemingly easy questions; they are indeed hard questions, the more honest you are, the tougher they get! I loved this book, shared it with friends.
