Customer Reviews

Popstrology is Poppin'

My friend brought in Ian Van Tuyl's Popstrology to the office today and we started getting people to gather around the book. It's a whole lot of fun. If you love music and enjoy reading your horoscope, this is definitely a great read, not to mention my popstrology was uncannily right on. Way to go for Ian Van Tuyl in combining two fun random things and make it a very enjoyable read on your own and with a group of people.

Smart and Sly

I picked up this book at the store and flipped through and got totally hooked and had to buy it--it's a smart satire on the astrology scene, but what impressed me most was how relentlessly funny the book is and how much knowledge it packs in about pop music. It's a great education about the music that really has shaped our lives...perhaps more than we know.

Share this with friends! I did.

I have never had so much fun in my life, reading this book aloud, laughing with old friends at a reunion party. Can't wait to do the same when the extended family gets together at Christmas. Better than Pictionary or Trivial Pursuit. My boyfriend is getting ready to Ipod the Popstrology repetoire for easy reference. I'm a Carly Simon in the Year of Roberta Flack. I'll be pondering that for a long time to come.

Great reading!

This book is alot of fun and a great read, especially for music fans or anyone who wants to take a trip down memory lane! It is a great gift - my wife gave it to me for my B-Day - and we have enjoyed reading it together.
