I like the cover, its cute! I actually thought that this was a children's book. However, I dont believe in aliens and other extraterrestrial beings, so I'll pass on this book.

I think that it's interesting that this book is a first-hand account of aliens visiting. Sad that the pictures weren't so good. Nice review.
Just reading... :techie-studyingbrown: :techie-studyinggray:

Sounds like the pictures are stretches out too much just to prove their point. But then the storytelling sounds persuasive and captivating. Thanks for this review!

This book documents the author's observations, which are very unconvincing. He claims to have spotted starships with alien passengers and presents blurry images that he captured using his camera. Since I'm skeptical, I will not be reading this one.

This is an interesting book that seem to validate the E.T phenomenon. I would be interested to know what the author says about the subject. Thanks for a nice review.

Thank you for sharing your review with us. Although I find the author’s excitement of his experience palpable, unfortunately the images are unconvincing.

Thank you for an elaborate review. Looks like an engaging story about UFOs and extra terrestrial stuff. Not my cup of tea, will pass it on. Thank you again!

I am not really sure about reading a non-fiction book which deals with the concept of extraterrestrial creatures. Thank you for the review!

Again the review was the only way for me to extract the essence of the book. Your review is way too long because You elaborated it very subjectively. However, your review made me question the plot of the book and become skeptical, which I think was needed for a non-fiction plot of this kind. I'm not against you or the author. Doesn't hurt to taste something new..
Thought-provoking take on the book, Dino's World, MsTri. Thank you. :tiphat:

Am not into non-fiction genre but this seems more like sci-fi, so I would like to give it a try.

I at first thought that the story would not be something that I would enjoy reading. I found after reading the review that I want to check out the book. I like that the author is trying to prove alien life exists along with other creatures found in nature such as the Loch Ness monster, Bigfoot, etc. I definitely want to see what kind of evidence the author has found and read this story.

Wonderful insights :D thanks for sharing :tiphat: Like you, I've seen and heard about them too, I got to admit, it's quite entertaining, but honestly speaking, I'm really not a fan of this genre. Thankful for the free sample though👍 Congrats to author on the #BOTD🎉

When it comes to aliens, I'm an open-minded skeptic (when it comes to cryptoids like the Yeti, I'm more of a skeptical believer). It takes quite a bit to convince me of first encounters. After reading this reviewer, I was curious and took a look at the photos--I am not convinced, either. Perhaps the first-hand account will be better in that regard. Either way, I'll keep this on my to read list since it at least seems entertaining, whether it's real or not. Thank you for the helpful review.
