I just finished this book today. Fascinating stuff! Some of the items are old hat for me, but I did learn quite a lot from this book. If you are interested in unexplained phenomena, I highly recommend this book as a great place to start or review.

Gotta love these overview books!

Interesting, and a bit creepy. There's a lot of weird stuff out there.

Interesting, some of these mysteries I have heard of. I wonder if we will ever figure out what they mean and be able to solve them.

Did not finish due to the format set-up. Lost interest. I think I stopped at page 18 or 28.

A smattering of everything! The introduction alone takes you from aliens to tarot cards to past lives and we haven't even started Chapter One yet! Historical oddities and theories, from Hitler to the Bermuda Triangle. This book is a delight! It is one book of a whole series published by Reader's Digest. I have 6 books of this series, a gift from an ex-boyfriend (great way to woo an avid bookworm btw lol). Unfortunately, he has the remaining books of this series. It's a fun, thought provoking read. It's not a deeply spiritual or academic book by any means, nonetheless, it is a delight for the senses. Great information and photos! :)
