The personal stories were quite fascinating. The quotes were good. Also the facts they included in the book were informative. There were parts that were really enjoyable yet there are some that aren't. For instance, the classic poems cause I usually have a hard time comprehending. They weren't bad tho, I just suck at it.

For such a small book, it has LOTS of info inside. I found several of the quotes amusing, I am keeping some of the recipes (Orange Chocolate Chip Cookies!!!) and just one of the definitions struck me as amusing...
