Summary: It Helped Me
Review: I picked up Dodds' book a week into my quit. It was a blessing to have in my hands as I persevered. Dodd has accumulated into one place some of the best reasons for quitting and staying quit. I added my own reasons, wrote in a few motivational quotes, and highlighted my favorite Dodd reasons--when I want to smoke, I pull the book out and it provides me with a ready-made-source for quitticisms (solid reasons for not smoking). I realized that I need my addict thinking to change: I needed a brain washing in terms of how I thought about smoking, and this little book was a tool I used to begin the washing process.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Well.....okay
Review: It delivered what it said it would - 1,440 reasons to quit. Not all of them inspired though ... It's a small book too - the type is also small. I didn't think it was worth the money spent. You could find more inspiration online or from sections of more meaty books like Complete Idiots Guide to Quitting. After getting through the first few pages I was like "Dang! - I could do a more imaginative job myself" (and I'm a crummy writer) :-) But hey, if you want to send a message to a smoking friend .... this is a positive and non-confrontational way to do it....would make a good stocking stuffer too (it's that small...)

Summary: Surprisingly helpful
Review: Of course, a book can't make you want to quit smoking. But, it can remind you of the reasons and even provide some new ones.

Not all of the reasons in this book will work for every person. But, if one doesn't apply to you, some of the other 1,439 will. Some are funny: "Climbing the walls is aerobic exercise." Others focus on health, smell, expense, perserverance and pride.

Carry this book in your pocket or purse (it's small enough). Highlight favorite or especially meaningful statements and flip to them in times of need. Good luck!

Summary: If you're desperate to spend your cig money on something...
Review: Ok, so you're going to quit smoking.... CONGRATS!!!! WOOHOO!!! GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!

So you can't think of a reason to quit? What are ya deaf, blind, dumb, and living on a deserted island?

Search the Internet, learn about tobacco related illness and ask any ex-smoker what's wrong with smoking...voila...you now have a TON MORE than this book is going to offer you.

However, if you need a small paperback pocketbook that simply lists items such as "Your mama is going to be so pleased with you" and "Less risk of illness" then go ahead and spend your money on this book.

The book is worth FAR MORE than a pack of cigarettes so if it comes down to smokes or this book..then buy the book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: SMOKERS AND EX-SMOKERS MUST BUY THIS BOOK
Review: This book got me to quit. I've tried quitting a hundred times. I smoked for 24 years since I was 14 years old and have never gone more than 2 months without a cigarette until now. I've been quit for 3 months as of today and I'm nowhere close to going back; I'm done with this disgusting habit. I've used a million different strategies to quit and I always went back to smoking...until I bought this book. Whenever I tried to quit before I would have a reason to quit that I thought would work. For example, I would quit because of my health, or my tennis game, or my love life. Whatever. Eventually, when faced with enormous cravings, these excuses didn't hold up to the power of nicotine. What this book does is give you 1440 reasons to quit, not just one or two reasons. Now, when I get a really bad craving where I think I'm going to bust, I just pick up 1440 Reasons To Quit Smoking and I realize what a dangerous and stupid habit it is. Now, if I was to ever decide to smoke again, it would just be suicide pure and simple. Also, go to quitnet.net, the best website in the world if you want to stop smoking.
