4.0 out of 5 starspretty accurate for me
By A Customer on May 20, 2000
Format: Paperback
this book pinned several of my friends down .. and it got me pretty well too. it's certainly a good few hours of entertainment with friends, and it's a rare book that you can actually share around at a party. consider it entertainment .. if someone takes astrology seriously enough to get offended over a book being wrong about them, then they need to consider the source . . . .

5.0 out of 5 starsSo Accurate It's Scary!
By Sandra Kubik on March 21, 2006
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
This book is so incredibly accurate, it was scary. There was one particular relative whose EXACT course of actions is what the book said - deed for deed. No birthday so far has NOT been accurate. The only complaint I have is that while some birth date descriptions are serious - others are kind of "fluff" - i.e., she loves flowers and then goes on and on about that. Or in another case that the person loves spiders (they don't)and other descriptions are somewhat gender based, but the rest of the description is extremely accurate. Those descriptions are far and few between, however, and the majority are serious studies. It's interesting that you can get tremendous insight to some people that you know only as acquaintances.

This is a fantastic book to have.

1.0 out of 5 starsdon't waste your money
By Elizabeth J. on April 13, 2013
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I have a couple of really good birthday books (the secret language of birthdays is one) that my friends and family enjoy reading when they visit. My brother in law really loves reading up on family members and himself so I ordered this book for him thinking it would be similar. What a waste of money! The writing is very shallow and it compares birthdays with popular stars and how you like to shop, etc. very mainstream, materialistic drivel. I don't live my life based on Astrology, but I do find it very interesting and a good way to learn more about ones self and those in around them when a well researched book is consulted. This is not that type of book, I think I'd find more insight in reading those cheap magazines sold at grocery store check out stands.

5.0 out of 5 starsPretty good book with lots of information
By Umbrella Cockatoo on May 27, 2016
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
Pretty comprehensive book on the birthdays and the astrological signs. I was impressed with the amount of detail it gives and it is a nice reference book when needed. I use this book to look up different birthdays and to get a better idea of how a particular person with a astrological sign can differ.

5.0 out of 5 starsAs expected
By Erik Gonzalez on April 22, 2013
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I found this book to be intriguing and accurate for just about every birthday that I had inquired upon. An excellent book to lose yourself in, and an excellent way to share some time with friends and family.

3.0 out of 5 starsInteresting Book
By Wayne Maden on May 5, 2011
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
This is an interesting book, but obviously most people only use certain portions of it.
I gave it 3 stars, but could just have easily gave it 5. It all depends on your interests.
