Summary: Whew! So true it's scary
Review: Everybody has dreamed of dating better people. But after reading Updating, the dreaming is over and it's becoming a reality. Having the typical "You gotta show me" mentality we have in Missouri, I needed proof. Not to sound arrogant, but I read Updating and now I'm convinced that I can get the best -- and I know how to do it. The author gives studies which back up everything she says. And one of them is that people always underestimate their ability to attract. As she wrote, because of many reasons, especially lack of self-esteem, we SUBCONSCIOUSLY shy away from making a 100% effort to go after what we want. We only go after who we think we deserve. It's so true. Now I know where to find and how to appeal to the men I want -- and know I deserve. My self image and my love life have improved spectactularly. Read this book and you will soon be hanging with a better class of people too.

Summary: Want to date out of your league? This book shows you how.
Review: I highly recommend "Updating" for anyone who wants to upgrade their love life. There is fabulous information on what each type of "out of your league" person is looking for in a mate. Then the author tells you the precise moves to make to appeal to that particular type of superior person. It's sure not the same old tricks you read about in most books on getting a partner! Gorgeous or classy people want a lot more and this shows you how to give it to them. She also tells you how to upgrade YOURSELF to appeal the above or more creative and honorable potential partners.

Summary: Wow, this book is terrific! It's a "10"
Review: I thought Leil's "How to Make Anybody Fall in Love With You" was tops. But "Updating" is even better because it's not just how to make ANYBODY fall in love with you. She tells you where to hunt, and how to get, a spectacular partner.(Way out of your league?) What I like is that "one size doesn't fit all." In different sections, she gives you get realistic and researched techniques to win a different type of superior man or woman. Do you want someone who is:
1) Very rich?
2) Famous?
3) High class and discriminating?
4) Gorgeous?
5) Creative and interesting?
6) Ethical and honorable?
She tells you what type of person each is looking for, and why they respond to different approaches. "Updating " tells you where to find each particular type and how to win them over. I happened to want a beautiful and refined woman (they really ARE different than average women,) and her unusual techniques worked. I am now dating a classy 10! ________________________________________________________________

Summary: Men, don't call me until you've read this book!
Review: I'm not ashamed to say I am an attractive woman with high class tastes. And I want a man a lot more cultivated than the "frogs," as the author calls them, that I've been dating. Reading this book doesn't guarantee that it will turn every frog into a Prince, but it sure will help guys please women they thought they could never get. I've shared the book with some girlfriends and they all agree.
In one part Lowndes tells you how to dress, how to furnish your home, how to talk to more refined people and even how to exude the quiet confidence that all women like. Read it and then call me!

Summary: BE the right person to FIND the right person.
Review: Think about it.
Choosing the right mate is probably the most important decision of your life. It is more vital than the school you attend or the job you take. Basically this book gets you to focus on making the best possible choice. If you were ever going to reach for the gold ring on the merry-go-round, now (mate selection) is the time.
The chief message is that quality associates with quality. That means I have to engage in objective introspection and work to become the best possible version of myself.
A fit, attractive, educated, industrious, and prosperous woman is not going to be interested in me if I am fat, poorly groomed, uneducated, lazy, and poor. She'll assume that such outward features are merely reflections of an inner character that does not measure up to hers.
Above all, the attractive prospect is going to demand someone with class. Perhaps the two most important characteristics of class are integrity and confidence.
Integrity doesn't just mean that you don't lie. It also means that you do what you say you are going to do, when you say you are going to do it. You respect others. In short, you are worthy of the label, "lady" or "gentleman".
Confidence is essential. Fortunately, the author recognizes that almost all of us are going to be confidence-challenged as we attempt updating. Her humorous, yet clever, advice is the `fake it until you make it.' That's pretty sound.
However, confidence is not superciliousness or arrogance like that evidenced by the reviewer who instructs men to not call her until they have read this book. My bet is that the author would point out that if the reviewer were already a princess, she would be so sought after that she would not have to read this book.
This book is as much about self-improvement as anything.

Summary: Yet another homerun by Leil!
Review: This book is FANTASTIC!!! Through check-lists, exercises, and hilarious examples (often backed up by proven scientific research), Leil takes readers on a journey to get THE BEST in life. After reading this book, I've developed the confidence to go after anyone. I've also learned "don't date any more frogs....only look for royals". Some of the concepts are quite simple, but VERY POWERFUL. I highly recommend this book.

Summary: X-Royal Delight
Review: Updating begins with common-sense tips from figuring out your own interests, personal preferences and direction in life, and then figuring out what kind of a partner would best complement your desired lifestyle and goals in life.
Leil then guides you through an overview of four different categories (classes) of people: good-looking, rich (classy), honorable, and one-of-a-kind (X-royals), with a small subsection of Triple-X Royals (one may say, "kinky to extreme" kind). She has chosen these particular four based on the interest of majority of people who have attended her workshops.
While characteristics of people in different categories may overlap to some extent, the characteristics are based on their predominant values, backgrounds, preferences, what can help you to establish rapport or what will turn them off and run in the opposite direction.
I was delighted with the entire book, but felt particularly warm and fuzzy when I got to the X-royal delight (one-of-a-kind) people, as I read her amazingly accurate insights .

Summary: K Rothe
Review: Updating isn't Leil Lowndes at her best. Its filled with very obvious "tips" and ideas. Some chapters are helpful, but a lot of it is out of date (even though the book is brand new!) or very nearsighted. An example is when the author refers to landing a "rich" mate, she only seems to write about the qualities "old money" seek. The chapter on confidence is good. Some people may find Updating helpful, but unfortunately, I didn't.
