Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Priceless
Review: Look no further if you need a resource for the absolute right thing to say in your greeting cards. The author has something here for just about any occasion, including what to write to "step" people in your life, Passover and Kwanzaa.

For only $10, this is a quite a deal!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Nice Collection of Phrases, But...
Review: This (very) little book contains ideas for personalizing cards for 30 occasions. The categories run the gamut from frequent occasions such as birthdays or thank you notes, to the rarer events like retirements and new homes. Each occasion has a page or two of short sentences to help you express your sentiments.

This book will not really help you write longer notes, or letters; but it is perfect for adding something personal to a ready-made greeting card. The last 40 or so pages are devoted to space for you to keep track of birthdays, anniversaries and Christmas/ Hanukkah/ Kwanzaa card lists. Without those pages, this would be more of a pamphlet than a book. I would have preferred more content instead of space for lists that I keep on my computer.

I like the idea of customizing greeting cards, and I'm sure I'll use the phrases in this book to jump-start my notes. However, if I had leafed through it in a store, I'm not sure I would have bought it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Worth twice the purchase price
Review: This book has filled a need. I used to shutter when trying to write a personal note within a card. Its so cold to just sign your name at the bottom. But to sit there and think of something to write was difficult. This book, even though you can use the sayings as presented in the book also allows you to quickly write your own personal message using the books passages as a outline.

The book itself is small enough to carry with you, place in a desk drawer, purse, so on. I now have two copies, one at home and one at work. This book saves me time and helps personalize all my cards and letters. I love this book...it's so handy!
