I say go for it with the book. Let me know if it works for you. I have never had anyone that wanted to read it, really, that I know. They just want to hold on to their cigarettes more. I just know that I have such an addictive personality, there was no way a book was going to help me but it did. Crazy. I don't believe in anything really but this book. Hey, if it doesn't work, you hardly spent anything. You can smoke while you are reading it but I already quit when I found it because I thought I was going to light up. Never even heard of this guy but found the book in Barnes and Noble and it was awesome. Fun to read too. He's not preachy. He doesn't insult your intelligence by saying smoking is bad for you. DUH, everyone already knows that and it doesn't help to know that.
But if it works for you, please let me know. It would be great to talk to someone who tried it. But really, you should just leave your willpower at home because you don't need any. I never think about smoking and that used to be all I thought about. Like, when can I have another one. Going outside in the winter in Chicago to smoke is a pain. But I was out there. I quit before they passed the law here banning smoking in restaurants and bars which normally I am against those types of laws. Live and let live is more me. But, I have to tell you it has made life easier for me because the smell not makes me sick. I hate to be near it. Went to Vegas and almost died with the smell of the smoke in the casinos. I don't know if the book did that to me or what but it was the the best thing that happened to me.
Either way, good luck. It is nice to get rid of that habit. It really is.

I ordered two copies today. One for me and one for my friend who is going to try and quit with me. So, I am buying my last carton today (going to a party this weekend and know that I will smoke), and I figure by the time I smoke most of it, the book will be here and I'll start reading. Hopefully, by the time I get near the end, I will never have to buy another carton again. I'll keep you posted.
