I noticed this book at a bookstore and was immediately enticed. A book claiming to teach you how to do everything? Sounds perfect right? Who wouldn't want to know how to be a trophy wife, respond to homophobic comments and make a rakhi (what's a rakhi)? This book by eHow is a delightful read and after flipping through several pages, found myself entranced by the hilarious content.

Whilst it is assumed that this book is an instruction guide to completing many tasks, the way it is written does not reflect the aims and I found it rather comedic overall opposed to serious. Even the disclaimers about following the book and taking own precautions was rather funny.

Having read the review below, I felt that the reviewer had the wrong expectations of this book and was hence disappointed. For me, I found it a source of hilarity and humour. If I had a few spare minutes, I'd just open to a random page and read about how I could build a raised bed garden or tell if a space alien means harm.

This book is the perfect time killer and I can imagine spending a few hours engrossed and laughing. I love it! It is the perfect coffee table book that will entertain guests, children and adults alike!

At 640 pages long, contains a difficulty rating, warnings and numbered instructions, this book will keep you entertained for a long time. I would however, not take it's instructions seriously and I advise readers not to as well.

The £15 RRP of this book can simply be avoided by shopping on Amazon- and I managed to obtain this book in good condition for a discounted £3.

Overall, 'How to do more of just about everything' is an entertaining and laugh out loud coffee table book which will get you hooked with finding out quirky facts and things you would never expect to find. Be prepared to be shocked and surprised at every turn of the page!
