Reviews

[Judith · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very useful material. I was a little smug when I read this book because many of the information contained within was already known to me. I use Windows 10, therefore all the info on Windows 7, XL etc, were not really relevant. If you use those operating systems, then those sections will be useful. The book is quite extensive and goes into topics like how to create an eBook cover with Microsoft design tools, like Paint and Draw. I have been using computers for over 20 years and even though I know how to use the computer, I felt that I could do with knowing a bit more than just how to use it. The book was useful in clearing up a few points but overall would be more suitable for a computer novice. It is worth reading none-the-less.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
