3.0 out of 5 stars Go For a Different Klutz Book!, June 14, 1997

By A Customer

I absolutely love Klutz books, and have all of mine in a plastic bin that I call my "bored box" for when I have nothing to do.

But I say, don't bother with this one. It's a disappointment.

For one thing, each page is only about 3x3" (perforated, and you have to separate them yourself -- the actual equivalent equals only about 20 normal-sized pages). The book is highly overpriced (I didn't buy it through Amazon -- if you get it, get it through them since they have a good price on it!)...I paid $18 for it. And finally, in the first edition they made a mistake so just added a Post-It note to correct it!

The worst thing about it is that there are only a few ways to play Peg Solitaire before you get bored with it.

Instead of getting this one, unless you are a Peg Solitaire addict (because then you will probably like it), I recommend grabbing a friend and getting the Klutz Book of Board Games. It has one Solitaire game in it that you can play by yourself, but the rest of the games are for buddies. Or if you're convinced you want to play something all alone, get their Klutz Puzzle Arcade, full of puzzles -- it's an A+!

By the way, sorry my review is so biased. I think Amazon has a pretty reasonable price for it, so you might want to go ahead and spend your cash on it if you really like this sort of game.
