It was interesting

There were a lot of facts i had never seen before...Though the author repeated one or two in this volume.

[Ronnie Cramer · Rating 2 out of 5]

A moderately interesting collection with plenty of typos.

Good to make you think

As the book went on, the "facts" became more outlandish, but like everything published on the internet today, it can and can not be researched. A good book to read while passing time in a waiting room or death row.

[Sherrie Henry · Rating 3 out of 5]

First of three trivia books read from John Brown.

First off, John Brown needs and editor. Constant typos and wrong words used. Very, very distracting. Puncuation is just wrong.

I give it 3 stars just because of the content. The grammar/puncuation is awful.

Interesting tidbits

I learned a few new strange and unique stories but spoiler alert...many are repeated so you really don't get 1000 ! I guess 1000 sounds better than 968 things

Old news

I thought this would be an interesting read, I was wrong! The information in this book is old news and not very interesting

Interesting !!!!

These were things I would never need to know but it was entertaining, I now have trivia I wouldn't before

[Sherida-jayne Glover · Rating 3 out of 5]

Just the facts.

The bullet point style makes this nice to pick up to waste time. It seems more like gossip than facts.
