5 | The Open Road: 50 best road trips | We are getting ready to take a trip around the USA in our retirement. This book has lots of great ideas. It will be fun to explore the options. We also invested in an atlas - even though we all use google to get around, it's fun to look at a map you can touch - yes- because we are baby boomers. | [] | 164049930X | 164049930X | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,618,862,647,513 | 39 | true |

5 | spiral bound atlas us, mexico, canada | I LOVE a spiral bound atlas... and it is really big... but the print is still really, really small when you really want/need to read it.

4 | Instant pot cookbook | I rolled the extra bucks for the spiral binding - which is super useful in keeping the book open as you are using it. I personally prefer the spiral binding whenever I purchase a cookbook. I collect cookbooks - even though I get lots of recipes online - there is nothing like holding and browsing through a cookbook for inspiration (my opinion) This cookbook is ground breaking - I didn't see any recipes that knocked my socks off, but I am new to "pressure cooking" so I wanted a real basic start and this cookbook is definitely that. | [] | B087M3TH8Z | B087M3TH8Z | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,615,519,903,770 | 0 | true |

5 | 50 States and where to go book | Santa brought this to me this year because we travel for work to a lot of different places all over the world and the US. I am looking forward to using it as a fun reference for wherever we are headed. Lots of full color pictures and easy to read paragraphs on ideas of what and where to go. Hardback. | [] | 1426216904 | 1426216904 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,607,770,135,583 | 8 | true |
5 | Camp cookbook | I bought this for a remote (virus this year) book exchange. I happen to know there are several people who are campers/hikers in this group and thought this would be the great option. I also added a firestarter to add to the fun. The cookbook offers a lot of full color photos... most of the recipes are pretty fancy. Something you would definitely be planning meals - not much of throw together meals with what you've got. The book is hard backed and ridged spine. | [] | 0760352011 | 0760352011 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,607,111,513,703 | 6 | true |
5 | Kids activity 12 month calendar | I purchase calendars for my grandsons each year - this year 6 and 9. They love to be able to make notes on special dates.. (how many days until we visit Grandma is my favorite)... these calendars have stickers, specific for each month - and I think they will both love that part too. | [] | 1523510145 | 1523510145 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,606,997,511,253 | 4 | true |
5 | Landsailing book | I purchased this for my husband as he has been talking about possibly making one of these so I thought he'd like to look at this book. If for nothing else maybe he can learn about the sport of landsailing. The book mainly has black and white photos... not a super high quality print.. but it will serve the purpose. | [] | 1693686422 | 1693686422 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,606,996,195,619 | 4 | true |
5 | the boy, the mole, the fox and the horse | I loved the idea of this book... I purchased for a holiday gift exchange (all adults).

5 | Taste of Home recipe book | Que the music... angels singing... this is one of my FAVORITE REAL (not recipes searched online) cookbooks! First, spiral back - this means the book will stay open as you're looking. Bright, beautiful pictures on every single page. The paper is shiny - better than a matte paper that absorbs more quickly. Easy to more complex (but not impossible) recipes. I am sort of a cookbook collector and this one tics all the spots for me - there are some recipes I'm familiar with and others I would like to try. I use a cookbook for inspiration/ideas - so this is fabulous with all the full color photos. Honestly, I purchased 2. One for myself and one for a Christmas book exchange. Hopefully someone who loves to collect cookbooks as much as I do will get it! | [] | 1617656542 | 1617656542 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,606,692,637,401 | 39 | true |
4 | fix and forget 5 ingredients or less updated/revised | A lot of what you would expect... I wish there was a way to search/organize the recipes in the amount of time it takes to cook in the crock pot... that would help when you're looking at options - like the least amount of time at the front, the most time in the crockpot in the back? I don't know. There are 8 full color pictures in the center of the cookbook - I guess better than nothing, but I really love more pictures. Really good - the book has a spiral back. That means it will stay open as you're using it. Down side, be careful, as the paper the book is printed is very much like a papertowel (meaning absorbs everything) matte, not shiny.. you get my drift... I love cookbooks and own many - even though I also search online options as well. Doesn't replace the cookbook in your hand in my opinion. This one is good if you don't own ANY crockpot recipe books. | [] | 1680991469 | 1680991469 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,606,692,280,454 | 4 | true |
5 | retire in Mexico book | Was just curious and wanted a bunch of info that was easy to read. Check, check. In my opinion this book is great collection of information. If you are just looking into options, this book is great place to start. I loved that it was really easy to read - not a lot of excess - just down flat info. Even though I don't think this is a road we are going to go, it was well worth the investment to look into the options. | [] | B08M8CRLPP | B08M8CRLPP | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,606,690,999,393 | 5 | true |
5 | family keepsake recipe book | This great as a family recipe keeper and then make a gift of it. The best part is the spiral binding which helps it stay open while you're using it. The down side? If you want to consider it... there is no projection for the paper pages you're writing on while cooking - they are just plain paper that is not terribly thick. I still like it as a keepsake. I hope one of my grandsons will end up with it long after I'm gone - from my daughter. | [] | 1450850006 | 1450850006 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,599,686,292,054 | 2 | true |
5 | Jeopardy puzzle book | My 81 year old mom is a huge Jeopardy fan and in this time of quarantine I thought this might be a fun diversion once in a while.

The spiral bounding makes it easy to keep the book open where you want it without struggle. | [] | 1640302875 | 1640302875 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,599,328,453,659 | 4 | true |

5 | heron puzzle | Mom likes herons so I thought this sort of folksy heron might be interesting.. 80 year old Mom is HUGE puzzle fan and this is right up her alley. 500 pieces make it a short term commitment with an easy success!

I am pleased with this purchase and so is my grandson. | [] | 142632877X | 142632877X | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,553,541,357,537 | 6 | true |
1 | ben and jerrys ice cream recipes | What a HUGE disappointment. They have three basic "sweet cream bases".... best, good, last resort (as they describe them). Sounds reasonable right? EXCEPT that for their "best" version, they omitted the cooking directions!!!! Seriously??? So, just google a good ice cream base recipe. They go on to provide some of their most popular flavors... but honestly, you need to be able to guess about their cooking process. I am LESS than impressed. The first 20 or so pages are all about them - and some ho hum info about ingredients. I would definitely pass on this purchase!<br />UPDATE: After some research I have discovered that is book is REALLY old and before the time of the importance of 'cooking' raw eggs. Really? My grandma taught me that about 50 years ago - long before Ben or Jerry thought about writing a worthless ice cream recipe book. Doesn't change the fact that this book is J.U.N.K. Save your money. It's easy enough to find a safe recipe cooked or not online. | [] | 0894803123 | 0894803123 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,553,287,174,716 | 162 | true |
5 | 3 bk harry potter set | My husband wanted to intrigue our 8 year old grandson in reading and he has recently discovered Harry Potter. It is truly a heavy, beautiful set. It's going to be wonderful to see him reading it! My personal thoughts were that the illustrations would help interest him too. He is an exceptional reader, so I really don't think these are going to be too much of a challenge. I never hesitate to update my reviews should new info seem useful. | [] | 133831291X | 133831291X | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,547,070,557,945 | 1 | true |
5 | personal calendar | I actually purchased this for my sister... she uses this for her home business and has used the particular brand and style for years. It's just her personal favorite and works for her. She writes a lot of notes and then uses the calendar at the end of the year to coordinate tax info, etc. It's not huge.. but large enough to be useful to her. She was lamenting that she could find it anywhere when I suggested Amazon. There were many different cover options and she is very, very happy to have it delivered right to her door. The measurements given were accurate and the photo represented the cover very well. Hope this was helpful in some way to you! | [] | 1441326294 | 1441326294 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,541,250,918,180 | 0 | true |
4 | kids cookbook with photos | I wanted a cookbook that I could sit with my 4 1/2 year old and 7 year old grandsons and choose things to make... There are several things I think will tempt them... I want to encourage my boys to try new things and have a part in the process of the cooking. This book has wonderful full color photos on most of the book. You "eat" with your eyes first... this is important - especially when trying to get kids involved. I will update my review as we have tried a few things. Why not 5 stars.... a hard spine... not a spiral - which makes it easier to keep open... *meh*... I do like the healthier recipes. I didn't see anything that you needed a degree to get done - which is good cause we are trying to get kids involved here! There are easy to follow step by step directions. The 7 year old reads so he is going to jump on the details. The 4 1/2 year old will like the photos. I never hesitate to update my reviews should new info seem useful... and I do hope this info was helpful to you in some way! | [] | 0756629160 | 0756629160 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,537,054,207,841 | 17 | true |
3 | picture cook book for kids | I wanted a cookbook that I could have my grandsons 4 1/2 and 7 to look through and choose things to make... this book has LOTS of full color photos on every page... unfortunately there are very few things my grandsons thought looked like a try (in fact, none) and I was disappointed that some of them were significantly complicated. I will donate this one. But to each his own... It just wasn't a win for us. | [] | 1861472196 | 1861472196 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,537,053,788,658 | 0 | true |
5 | Type 2 Diabetic cookbook and action plan book | My sister was recently diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. So I purchased this book for her. She really appreciated the information along with interesting and inspiring recipes. She took an education class - recommended by her doctor - and most of what was taught in the class followed the suggestions in this book. I think it's a great "starting" book for someone who is new to diabetes based on my sister's input. | [] | 1623158338 | 1623158338 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,527,888,337,033 | 24 | true |
5 | 1989 Toyota Truck repair manual Vol 2 | Have an inherited 1989 Toyota 1 ton pickup. This was an obvious "need." It is used... but something this old is probably gonna be. Eventually you're gonna need it. Husband says it has the info we need and well help us to find the parts we need. Truck only has 70k on it - in case you're wondering why in the heck would you want to work on it... ha | [] | B000M0FQW0 | B000M0FQW0 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,508,171,004,404 | 0 | true |
5 | One-dish vegan. | First let me say that I am new to the vegan diet, so I have collected a handful of books I thought would help me... having said that - this cookbook has NO photos. :( But... it still has a long list of useful recipes. Most are listed gluten free and soy free - if that matters to you. At the top of each page and under the recipe name it tells you this info... I haven't found any strange ingredients (meaning you can't find what you need at the local grocery store - as we live in a small rural town) and no super special pieces of kitchen equipment... so I consider that a bonus. I am not a trained culinary chef and I manage to understand the process of these recipes... I am a fan of one pot cooking (in all fairness some of the recipes use more than one pot - but served in one bowl..), so this book appealed to me. I like the Red Bean Gumbo (however I replace the green bell pepper with a red bell pepper as I am not a fan of green bell pepper and I omit the okra - not a fan of that either)... very satisfying. In the book it mentions that "gumbo" is the African word for okra! Hmm... I like gumbo... but sans the okra. haha. In any case, I purchased this cookbook and a handful of others to help inspire me to try to eat vegan. Now... if we could get them to add photos and a spiral back (to help keep the book open while you are using it in the kitchen) it would be a 6 star. :) | [] | 1558328122 | 1558328122 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,504,117,361,675 | 8 | true |
5 | Vegan cookbook for beginners | My husband is a type 2 diabetic and we wanted to explore the vegan diet option to help... First I will say that this cookbook has NO photos. I am always a little disappointed by this, but seems like more and more cookbooks these days are photo-less. :( On the upside, there is a very good informational (in my opinion as a vegan newbee) forward in this book with useful info about substitutes and options... The recipes seem to be fairly straightforward (no culinary degree needed or super special equipment) and tasty. I really love the chilled watermelon soup - it's more delicious than one might think. Wish the book had photos and a spiral back to help keep it open while in use, but even without that I think this cookbook is worth owning if you are interested in trying the vegan lifestyle. | [] | 1623152305 | 1623152305 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,504,116,564,467 | 7 | true |
5 | Easy Vegan Breakfasts and lunches | I am a Vegan beginner... so I was looking for cookbooks that were not too hard to follow and would offer some inspiration... this cookbook is great on all accounts. So far, I haven't found anything too difficult or needing odd tools or ingredients so weird you can't find them...... so that's all a plus. It does say "Easy Vegan"... but just to be fair, I have found that vegan cooking can take a little more time for me as I am not accustom to it... yet... I'm working on it. One the best features in this cookbook are the photos! So many cookbooks these days are without photos - which is not very inspiring - I mean - I get that the photos are expensive to add, but they make - or break a cookbook in my opinion. One of our favorites is the peanut butter banana pancakes... There are a lot of recipes using what you would expect... black beans, quinoa, lentils and the usual veggies and some nuts. Honestly, if you're looking to venture into the possibility of a vegan diet, out of the 4 books I ordered, this one is the one I usually reach for. Book and movie reviews are very subjective, and I get that. I try to be as helpful as I can when reviewing such items. | [] | 162414263X | 162414263X | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,504,116,190,945 | 4 | true |
5 | Just saving my money book. | I bought this along with a piggy bank for my 6 year old grandson as he will now be receiving an allowance!

5 | dice games book | purchased to go with a lawn dice set as a gift at christmas for a group of 3 boys, 4yrs, 8yrs and 12 yrs. They have every toy ever thought of and a lot electronics. So the dice and this book were a departure. However, I hear, they do play with the dice - the older boys read this book to try new games. So, I consider this a win win win. They are reading, learning new games, playing outside together and nothing takes batteries. :) | [] | 1507749198 | 1507749198 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,483,906,439,000 | 14 | true |
5 | paper bag princess | First read this to my daughter years and years ago when she was about 8.... Had an occasion to bring a book to girl baby shower where they asked for your favorite kid book.

5 | Ball Complete Book of Home Preserving | I am just a beginner and I find this book to very helpful so far. There are some pictures, lots of recipes and a lot of useful in about canning in general. I purchases a steam bath pot instead of pressure cooker (too much worry for me) and I learned it takes a bit longer using the steam bath, but still ok. I really want to try to can my own organic tomatoes... AND some fresh caught Halibut!

5 | daughter loves | purchased this and some others with colored pencils and pens for my (adult) daughter when she was recovering from a illness... she was thrilled. She reports that it is relaxing... soothing... and chases the blues right away. Who would have known? Anyway... she loved coloring as a child.. and apparently it's not such a bad thing to revert to some "childish" things once in a while... :) | [] | 1780671067 | 1780671067 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,458,942,458,000 | 0 | true |
4 | Great start | I am new to FODMAP eating (per my Gastro doc) and this is good book to help with you basics and a menu. I will say that most of the recipes don't really interest me - but I just tweak them to work for me and sometimes it helps to have some inspiration when dealing with new ways of eating. It does also give you some lists of high and low FODMAP foods, which can be helpful when starting out. There are pictures too, which is always helpful when looking at food. The lists are a bit overwhelming and if you read the "prep" before next week you might not even start. But I guess it depends on how organized and dedicated you are! Honestly, it's worth it to have as a reference. I always update if there is something that needs to be said. | [] | 1623154200 | 1623154200 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,454,298,949,000 | 7 | true |
5 | very cool | Bought these for daughter (33 years old) who is recovering from a minor surgery. She used to love to color as a child and I thought it might be fun. She was thrilled. And reports that it is soothing and quite calming. She doesn't get a LOT of time to do it with 2 year old and 5 year old boys but looks forward to it when she can. I always update with any issues or other useful info. | [] | 0486789640 | 0486789640 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,452,721,518,000 | 1 | true |

5 | good for research | Got this book for my husband at Christmas. He's always wanted to build a wood boat and he wanted several books to gather information and opinions. This was one of two. My husband really liked the information and photos in this book. It arrived quickly and in good condition with some other items I had ordered. It was not wrapped or protected, but it made it. I will update with any further thoughts my husband might add | [] | 0071464050 | 0071464050 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,452,481,843,000 | 1 | true |
5 | husband says its perfect for beginner research | Purchased for my husband for Christmas.... he has always wanted to build a wooden boat. He loves that this one has some actual plans that are good to consider as a beginner. He notes that you'll probably need a couple of different books to compare and gather info, but this one is an excellent one to start with. I would consider that a 5 star review from him. I always update if there is anything important to report. I will say the book arrived with a folded corner and not "packed" in any way, along with other items I had ordered. That part was a little disappointing. | [] | 048627313X | 048627313X | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,452,477,842,000 | 2 | true |
5 | super fun | Ok... I am a walking dead TV show fan. Have watched all along and had never, before now, seen the comic. I took the "bait" and tried this one (#1)... good marketing idea really... cause now I HAVE to get the rest. If you're a dead fan you'll love them. Wasn't sure I would like the "comic" book thing, but honestly it's awesome. Especially if you were into them as a kid... I used read the vampire, werewolf, etc... type. Not a fan of the "super hero" variety. These really are fun and interesting even if you've already seen the TV show. I was surprised. I say, try one. | [] | B00CHCUR9I | B00CHCUR9I | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,448,146,390,000 | 3 | true |
5 | Low tech, won't dump on you | HUGE (approximately - I did not measure, just eyeballing it -16"x12" when closed)... easy to read.. and of course the spiral binding helps to keep it open where you want it to be. I know everyone uses GPS on their phones or in their cars any more... however, when you're "mapping" out a course, it's nice to see the "whole" picture. And this map will NEVER "crash" on you. Sometimes low/no tech is awesome. I am very pleased to have it and plan to take it on any road trip I embark on. I will update with any other useful info or issues with use. | [] | 0528013173 | 0528013173 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,437,173,452,000 | 3 | true |
3 | not my favorite | I purchased this book and 2 others to begin my research. Honestly, the info in this book was a bit dated. I have a pretty good understanding of diabetes as a whole and was hoping for some of the newer, updated info on pre-diabetes. I prefered The Everything guide to managing and reversing pre-diabetes myself (PERSONAL CHOICE)... it included some innovative recipes and new food ideas I hadn't already heard a million times. Other than that, I really think that any book you purchase to learn something you didn't already know is never a loss. My opinions are just mine, hope you'll decide for yourself. | [] | B00CQZ6EK2 | B00CQZ6EK2 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,436,333,259,000 | 27 | true |
3 | No pics to speak of | The recipes run into each other... meaning they don't separate them... one ends the next begins... no pics besides a few "artsy" photos that don't even necessarily fit the recipe... honestly if you can borrow this one do that... I didn't find a single recipe I wanted to try. But that's just me. I just think photos are necessary in a cookbook. I was put off and perhaps I just decided the recipes weren't worth the effort. I am a visual cook. | [] | B00D3RGXYE | B00D3RGXYE | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,435,619,464,000 | 1 | true |

4 | interesting | I am a chopped fan and thought this would be an interesting addition to my cookbook collection. I would have preferred a spiral back. So it would stay open as you're using it.... thus the 4 stars instead of 5. Other than that, it has some very interesting, doable recipes. The pictures are lovely, however, not on every recipe, just FYI. Some are little more involved than I will probably get, but it does have some recipes with some out of the usual ingredients that would be challenging to try. Over all, it's a great cook book! | [] | 0770435009 | 0770435009 | AFZUK3MTBIBEDQOPAK3OATUOUKLA | 1,396,980,460,000 | 16 | true |

5 | One of the best books I’ve read in a long time! | One of the best books I’ve read in a long time! This is a great story about WWI and WWII and the heroism displayed by the people who endured those times. The central character is female and the story focuses on a female spy, but it’s not a “chick book” (a term I find unbelievably annoying). Good literature is good literature. The main characters are female but it is very well written and will appeal to both men and women. It’s a page turner.
