The Action Heroine's Handbook

Rating:
Summary: Yes, silly but not that entertaining
Review: From a hot list in a magazine, I thought this would be a great fun read and maybe learn a trick or too. The book is mostly common sense but some of was too far fetched to enjoy reading. If you like comic heroines and want to be just like one-this is your book. If you want real advice for the real world, try something else. I found it to be full of more dribble than substance and quickly tired of it. I live in the real world and my heroines have more substance than flash.

Rating:
Summary: Great Book
Review: Great book with real live advice about survival techniques. Similar to the other Survival Handbooks with First Aid-type illustrations, this is handy for those who would like to find out how real live people like stunt doubles, firefighters, and police officers survive perilous situations. Other recommended books: The Action Hero's Handbook, Queen B's Guide to Being a Superheroine, Worst-Case Scenario Handbook, SAS Survival Handbook, and Spy Survival Handbook.

Summary: Very Entertaining with some useful information
Review: I like this book, it's a fun mix of silliness and instruction on how to do things that could come in handy one day.
