Dated, But Still Relevant
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
I was given this book as a gift and immediately went to the back section to look at the music and movie guide. It's very dated (so many great lounge and jazz records have been released since it came out) but the party tips and the writing style is fabulous! I hope a new version of this book is released soon.

I never knew there were so many reasons, and so many ways, to party. This book is great because like all Dummies books, the layout means whatever question you have, the answer is easy to find. You don't have to read this from start to finish. I only wish the list of recommended music and film was more up to date. I guess I'll have to wait for another printing.
Fun? Wow!

I admit that I don't need a book to tell me that my ice should be fresh, or that mailing invitations is better than picking up the phone...however, this book is extremely entertaining and I actually learned a few things too. I love the way dummies books don't need to be read in a linear fashion. Pick any chapter and get ready to laugh. Any guy who throws parties for celebrities and isn't stuck up about it is cool in my books. The other review I read says this book isn't for dummies, it's for morons. Only a moron would say that. Frivolous? Yes! But it's a fun read and I plan on buying a few copies as birthday gifts for my swellegant friends. - A.P.
