Book Reviews of The Hipster Handbook
Book Review: What was once was "cool" is now "Deck."
Summary: 5 Stars
We've all them, they're the cool kids, aloof with their brand new jeans that look like they're 10 years old and their ?100 "I've just got out of bed" haircuts. They're called hipsters and this book is your guide to their world. The Hipster Handbook is part guidebook, part instruction manual, but throughout is humorous (in its own tongue-in-check way) and informative.The book splits hipsters into several varieties and lists each specimen's main features, likes and dislikes, oh and if you are so inclined, there are tips on how to best to become romantically involved with all types of hipster.
Some parts are very American, i.e. they use American Tv shows and personalities as examples which can make it hard to understand the point sometimes. However, for the most part, the guide travels well and you will soon be able to spot the different hipster types and categorise colleagues and acquaintances ( as long as they're hip, sorry, I mean, Deck enough).
