Eh, it's ok. I found a few very useful tips here and there. It focuses more on non-tangible things than I would have liked, but those things are important too. Each of the 100 things consists of a short essay written by a person deemed expert on that area; most are useful, all the ones I've read...
How-tos for 'small' actions (Brew Coffee, Wash Your Hair, Tie a Windsor Knot) are much better than the long, general ones (Jog, Eat Right, Care For Your Skin - standard glossies fare). Some tutorials are completely redundant (Read a Newspaper? Negotiate?)
Full of little trivia points for making live move smoothly, an ideal gift for someone moving out of home for the first time or for someone just interested in trivia.
