Book Reviews of Extreme Pumpkins: Diabolical Do-It-Yourself Designs to Amuse Your Friends and Scare Your Neighbors
Book Review: Great if You're Into GORE!
Summary: 3 Stars
I like some of the pumpkins in this book, but most are just too gory or sick for me to even think about creating. I like, "Cannibal Pumpkin", "Property Defender Pumpkin", "Road Kill Eating Pumpkin", and "Conjoined Twins Pumpkins" (although I could do a much better one than the one shown in the book). The others were either too gross, sick or simply lame. "Moldy Beard Pumpkin" was just a rotten pumpkin. "Drowning in a Bag Pumpkin" was just too sick - it's just too sick.
But, the book definitely awakens new ideas in my imagination, and I can create some super cool pumpkins of my own. This book doesn't come with patterns, but has very good explanations of how to create the pumpkins, what tools to use, vivid photographs of each pumpkin creation, and will your sick/gross pumpkin merit a call from the neighborhood association president.

Summary of Extreme Pumpkins: Diabolical Do-It-Yourself Designs to Amuse Your Friends and Scare Your Neighbors
Pumpkins are supposed to be scary!Based on his popular and addictive website ExtremePumpkins.com, Tom Nardone has created a full-color guide to pumpkin carving that's truly frightening. Featuring the website's signature Puking Pumpkin, and spanning everything from Drowning Pumpkin, Crime Scene Pumpkin, and Cannibal Pumpkin to Electrocuted Pumpkin and other never-before-seen designs, this gleefully gory guide is nothing short of a manifesto to take back Halloween from the cheerful, the cutesy, and the parent-sanctioned. For the egg-throwing, toilet tissue-streaming, window-soaping teenager in all of us, finally- a whole new way to celebrate October 31.
