Rating:  Summary: Home = a house Review: Maybe this book would be more useful for someone living in a house, but most of it doesn't apply to me in my apartment, and that wasn't very evident from what I could see of the shrink-wrapped book. Maybe I'll go back to it in 5 years when I move into a house with more space and more flexibility to make structural changes and get some use out of it then, but for now, it's pretty useless to me. Also, the pages are really low-quality magazine paper and you have to be very careful not to rip or wrinkle them. However, I do like the three-ring binder format -- very cute. Someday this book will be of use to me, but I guess I'm just not settled enough yet.
Rating:  Summary: good for men, women, those new to and used to housekeeping Review: This is a wonderful book! I don't know of anyone who couldn't use this book for something or other. It is well organized, gives easy and simple instructions, and with the five ring binder, you can add your own little hints. It has labeled tabs that make it easy to find the subject matter you are searching for. This book would be good as a gift for newlyweds, as a graduation present (young men could get good use out of it also), etc. A very good, informational book that will be useful for years to come. I highly recommend it.
