This review is from: The Seattle GuideBook, 12th (Paperback)

THE SEATTLE GUIDEBOOK is a book about the Seattle area which has humor reminiscent of such comedies as DATE MOVIE, DRIVE ME CRAZY, AMERICAN WEDDING, SIMPLY IRRESISTIBLE, HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, SABRINA, THE TEENAGE WITCH, 13 GOING ON 30, HARVARD MAN, THE SISTERHOOD OF THE TRAVELLING PANTS, and the two GARFIELD movies featuring Jennifer Love Hewitt. In other words, this IS a great guide to the Seattle area, but it's so much more than that. It also gives you something like which you should try to take teasing, instead of giving the teaser what they want. Of course, this book also gives you a lot of different ways, if you're a guy visiting the Seattle area, to keep your woman happy, with its lists of malls, radio stations, and healthy diet ideas. If any of the above is important to you, you need this book, even if you're not going to Seattle.
