Book Review #17 - The Ultimate Encyclopedia of Mythical Creatures

The Ultimate Encyclopedia of Mythical Creatures
Colin Dempsey

You know, for being "the ultimate encyclopedia" it would have a lot more information. There are around a hundred different mythical creatures, most of which are already well known, and with only a page or two on each. I've gotten more information from Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings (which are both mentioned in this book.) It barely mentioned Eastern, Native American, and Eastern European mythological creatures. I feel like I was cheated out of my money. Definitely NOT worth buying or even using for research.

Book Review #16 - Uncle John's Endlessly Engrossing Bathroom Reader

Uncle John's Endlessly Engrossing Bathroom Reader
Bathroom Reader's Institute

Another BR book I got for Christmas. So far, my favorite of the one's I've read.  Like all the other BR books, it is nothing but anecdotes, stories, history, and random facts to keep the reader entertained. I learned a lot reading it, and it definitely passed the time (if you know what I mean ;) )
