What I Can Tell You:
I think this is pretty damn cool! If you like trivia and love reading, these books are awesome. There are over 100 movie quotes and over 1000 vocabulary words in each book.

As someone who loves to read and loves trivia games, I found this to be a great way to learn.

Brian's approach to learning works. Imagine being in middle school with the coolest English Teacher who teaches vocabulary using words from your favorite movies. How many kids would love and excel in English?!

The books are set up where you read the lines from the characters (the vocabulary words are bolded), then you test your wit. Name the movie, the scene and answer what the word might mean. Then you flip the page to see how you did.

The back of the book has a glossary of all the vocabulary words in the book.

What a great way for friends to test each other. Maybe if I read these books, I would no longer need to call myself the Amateur Book...Read more
