The Movie Book of Answers

Great Book For the price! My kids love this book. We have just about every book like this on. Fun For the family! Sometimes when the kids are bugging us about something we tell them we are going to let the book answer them lol big fun! Our boys are 7, 10, 11 and they think it is the best book they have ever had. Thank you

Carol is a multi-disciplinary artist who has a passion for quotes and incorporates words into her two-dimensional and sculptural works. She told me she was working on a third book and finally it has been published!This one gives even better answers than the first two, to the point where I am starting to wonder if I am being watched when I ask the book a question. One time last week, I asked the book the same question three times! The book almost said: "I told you the answer the first time." The answers I kept getting for the first question finally concluded in me reading: "Anything you do could have serious repercussions on future events."Talk about a warning!The picture here at Amazon does not do this book justice. It is about two inches thick, the size of your hand, and is covered in a classic blue cover. The book feels good in your hands. If you saw it on a coffee table you would reach out for it intuitively.To research this book, Carol had the immense challenge of deciding which movie quotes to include. I was pleased to see she included quotes from: It's a Wonderful Life, The Sound of Music, Casablanca and Gone with the Wind. Some other favorites include:It sounds better in French. -Jerry Mulligan: An American in ParisI've warned you fairly, don't change your course. -Faith Wishart: Ebb TideMake Time. -Frank Stark: Rebel Without a CauseYes, but don't hold that against me. -Peter Warne: It Happened One NightMy first introduction to Carol's books was: "The Book of Answers." It is a book of mystery and you are instantly intrigued when you see its unique size and the first thing you will think will be: "What is that book about?"I was one of the last people to a book signing party. They were just putting the books away, when I became intrigued. I walked over and found the last Autographed copy...as if it was waiting for me. I opened the book and saw a few words on each page. What I didn't realize was that I had to ask a question first, and then open the book!Fortunately Carol Bolt was there to save me and explained how the book worked. Carol Bolt is one of the nicest authors I have ever met. She is just as fun to talk to as her book is to read. She said that the idea for "The Book of Answers" came from the advice her parents gave to her while she was growing up. She told me it held "all the answers to her life."As soon as I knew the secret of how to play with this new toy for my brain, I was laughing and told my husband we had to buy this book. Carol explained that her books have the intrigue of a magic eight ball, but unlike the magic ball, this book has so many more answers.You supply all the questions, and then you can find one answer printed in capital letters on each page. The instructions are on the back of the cover on a removable sticker and are also in the front of the book. You place your hand on the cover, reflect on a question, and then when it feels right you open the book and read the answer.In the first book: My husband asked: "Will I make more money at my new job." The answer: "In a year from now, it won't matter!"Well, since then we have moved to an area where you can make the same amount of money and afford to live better.So, how about that!I can highly recommend all three of Carol's really fun books! They are great for parties and will have your guests intrigued in no time!So what did it say when I asked: "Will everyone love this book?""Once you have found it never let it go." -Emile: South Pacific~The Rebecca Review

I liked this book and the only reason that I didn'trate it a 5 is because some of the phrases do notmake any sense. Most of them do though and that isgood. The book itself is fun and I use it every timeI have a yes or no question. It is suppossed answeryour question,which most of the time it does. Youwould not want buy this book if you just wanted toread it like a chapter book. This is more for reference.I do like the quotes, and the design, and overall thisis a good buy in my opinion!

This book is a really nice personal wisdom tool- if you can take a couple of quality minuets in your day & use it as instructed and seriously(without asking lite-hearted or stupid questions) it will give some pretty insightful replies for you to ponder on. I understand that Carol Bolt has also released "The Souls Book Of Answers" which answers more "open-ended" type questions(i.e. "what should I do about....."). This form of divination is relativly new to me, having studied the Tarot for several years, but I find it a refreshing break for using from time to time. The truth about all forms of divination(Tarot, Crystal Balls, Dice, Books, etc.) is that they are not "special" in themselves, but they help you to connect to the answer(s) deep within you. There are some fortunate individuals in this world who already possess highly developed "sixth senses", but for the rest of us there are tools like "The Movie Book Of Answers". Try it & find out for yourself.

"The Movie Book of Answers" compiled by Carol Bolt is pretty much a cross between Bartlett's Famous Quotations and The Magic 8 Ball. The process for using this volume is the same with which Virgil's epic poem "The Aeneid" was used in ancient times: you hold the book closed, take 10-15 seconds to concentrate on a closed-end question, stroke the edge of the pages (yes, that is in the instructions) and when you sense the time is right, you open the book and PRESTO the right answer will be there before you.I have to tell you in all truth and honesty that Virgil worked a lot better for me than this volume. Maybe I am not stroking it the right way, who knows? I read Rebecca's review and of the great success she has had with this volume and I think "Will she like this review?" and I ask the book and it comes back with "Oh Yes, You Can...You Must" (Captain Von Trapp: "The Sound of Music"). I am so confused (Grandfather: "Moonstruck"--I am just quoting here, I do not know if it is really in this book). Maybe I am just under a curse. Did I mention that Virgil works really well for me? I tried it again: "Will Amazon.com edit this review?" and the books says, "[You] can never go back" (Narrator: "Rebecca"). Wait! There's a link! If only I was asking about Rebecca when I got the "Rebecca" quote.Maybe I am just one off here by one. Wouldn't THAT be ironic?Look, I happen to like The Magic 8 Ball and I like movie quotes, so this is a great combination in the tradition of peanut butter and chocolate. Maybe I am just under a curse. That would explain why I am having all these problems.
