Book Reviews of Spinner Books - Can You Beat Ken?

Book Review: I love Ken, and now I love Ken's game...
Summary: 4 Stars

When I was a kid, I was hooked on Jeopardy. (Yep, sorta had a crush on Alec Trebek.) Alas, when real life (and real boys) got in the way, I quit watching... but then came Ken, and I could not HELP but get hooked again! Who says that smarty-pants geeks aren't sexy? Trust me, they are!

When his run on the show ended, I was bereft! Thank goodness CAN YOU BEAT KEN? came out! When I read about it, I went panting and heaving to my local bookstore to get a copy. I'm happy to report that my wildest fantasies have come true--at least in print: Ken (well, anyway, his book) kept me up all night as I moved from category to category, trying to answer as many questions as I could. It's a mix of every kind of trivia, and because there are true/false, multiple choice and fill-in-the-blank questions, it's never boring (duh!). Best of all: the kind of arcana Ken has collected here just takes my breath away! (My own area of expertise, movies and pop culture, is well-represented and even I was challenged.) Bottom line: it is truly a factoid feast! If you're a trivia trollop like me, you'll eat this book up.
