This book sat on my desk for 2 months before picking it up. I was skeptical that theres no chance i stop smoking because of a book. Finally picked it up finished it in 3 days and I'm now a happy non smoker... mind blown after 17 years of smoking

I don't relate to a lot in this book? Not sure why, I've been a smoker for way too long and I need to quit but this book is taking me sooooo long to finish? Need to find something else.

3.0 out of 5 stars Different way of looking at smoking, most common sense
Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on March 26, 2019

I think most of this book was fairly common sense stuff, with certain unique ways of looking at what quitting even is..

However I felt like some things were blatantly a lie... Or highly misleading.

But it serves its purpose.. I didn't read all of the book. But I also don't smoke anymore..

3.0 out of 5 stars It just didn’t work for me
Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on June 1, 2022

I’ve read this book twice now and both times it had no affect on helping me quit smoking. I can see why it would work for some people as in essence it’s just physiological jargon, repeated through the book but the method in my opinion is will power.
The understanding of the physiological effects are interesting but it hasn’t helped me quit.

3.0 out of 5 stars You've still got to be ready
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 23, 2019

I'll be completely honest here. By mid book, I was ready to quit. But the more I read, the more I was awaiting some magical, final "trick" I guess you'd say.. So, after nearly a full day without smoking and being excited about the book after the first several chapters, I wish I hadn't reopened it the next morning.. The read started wearing on me badly and made me want to smoke reading the same thing nearly every page just written differently it seemed. I think I should have never finished the book because I was ready at the midway point.

However, the book is well written, no doubt. It's filled with higher IQ common sense which I love.. But honestly it's also filled with the obvious scenarios, too. Repeated a thousand times In this book and it just turned boring because of the grueling repitiveness. This is a man's account of how HE quit and his personal rationale on quitting while transmitting his info to you.

Yes, it's a brainwash book as it should be, but if you're not ready, this isn't going to work. The book is excellent, don't get me wrong, but it's 60 +/- pages too long. I understand it works for some people, and it had my full attention as mentioned, but... Too long, too much.

It’s a good book, definitely opened my eyes to understanding it more. But there wasn’t a magic moment and everything is suddenly super easy and you never want to smoke again.

3.0 out of 5 stars I really wanted this to help
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 13, 2021
Verified Purchase
I was already 5 days into my quit when I received this book. I made it half way through and I did not find this book to be very helpful. The book suggested to keep smoking while reading and would even stop to remind you to have a cigarette. That was quite annoying because I was already struggling to stay quit. It’s extremely repetitive and my ADD brain just couldn’t handle it. I’m assuming there is a reason for such repetitiveness. The book is probably trying to rewire your brain. Maybe if I bought this book before I actually quit, it would have been much more effective & helpful. I’m very happy this book has been a godsend to so many people. I can not knock that. So therefore I will give it 3 stars. It does have some great advice, but nothing that ‘wowed’ me.

3.0 out of 5 stars Did not accomplish my goal of quitting smoking.
Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 26, 2022

This was well written with Tons of reinforcement. I believe it would be helpful to others as it addresses the psychological aspect in addition to a lot of myths regarding smoking. I have quit with other methods in the past and feel I probably was overly knowledgeable and already aware of the information in the book.

The picture shows it comes with a free CD. I did not get the same book pictured; no CD included. I bought this item for the CD. I tried to find a way to request just the CD, however, I could only find a request to return. That was disappointing. The book itself seems to be very informative and I am excited to start reading it.
