Read online here.

The idea of this book was more interesting than the actual reading of it. Maybe it would help if I had seen more of the movies. And hadn't just read The Art of Kissing, which essentially had all the same info in it. I mostly read this as a joke, anyway.

If you love reliving romantic moments onscreen.

[Lady Brainsample]

Yet another book worth the two bucks of entertainment.

[Anthony · Rating 3 out of 5]

There's some sound info in here, and some creative ideas, but a lot of this is star-gazing hooey.
