DESCRIPTION:
I thought the original Book of Questions was a must-have, but this is the one you need When I was young, my parents had this book and used to (gently) demand that we "play" this book from time to time. It was always thought provoking and always an ice breaker.Fast forward to when I moved into my own apartment in college: they were delighted to dump many of their well-worn possessions--including this book--into my lap. I used this book many a time with new and old friends to get to know them better, both in college, in my 20s and beyond. It's a great after dinner act. Interesting questions My husband and I really like this book. We read one or two questions before bed and have ended up talking for hours into the night. Although we've known each other for 20 years, we weren't in contact for a long time. When we got back together we had a very short courtship so these are things we never discussed, which makes it great fun and a super way to bond.. Great for Engaged couples wanting to know everything about each other This was great for my husband and I getting to know deeper things about one another as we were courting/engaged. Even 16 years later, its a great book to go over again and see if you can remember the original answers and see how they've changed or if they are the same.
