Girls Just Want To Have Shoes

Great stocking stuffer. Fun, fun, fun read. Fabulous graphics and use of color. Clever writing. Terrific concept. We all know bootists and this little book gives them/us a voice. Now I don't have to be embarrassed that I own so many shoes and that the majority are black. It's good to know I'm not alone and I'm like the other girls.

Fabulous!

From the moment I had the book handed to me by the author himself I could not put it down. Whether this book describes you to a T (like myself) or you care for someone who would put their life on the line for a great pair of shoes, it makes the perfect gift or addition to any woman's purse. I am a college student who attempts to fit 200 pairs of shoes into a dorm room with almost 200 still at home. So not only is this book amusing, but it is comforting for those like me to know that we are not alone. My highest recommendations!

Perfect Gift

It's about time someone recognized the obsession we women have with shoes! This has made the perfect "extra gift" that accompanies my gifts for birthdays and the recent bridal showers I've attended. Looking for a little extra to tie on top of the gift, this is it! Alas, I am only a 35-pair of shoes Bootist due to my small city digs, but I'm a Bootist nonetheless.

I'm a Bootist!!

I laughed out loud when I read this adorable ode to shoe lovers. Since reading the book I have given the "Are you a Bootist?" quiz to all of my friends and family. If you are a shoe shopper extraordinaire, this book is a must. As the proud owner of 200+ pairs of shoes, I think I can say with authority that this book gives a voice to shoe lovers everywhere!

A Treat for Your Feet!

If your own words cannot express the degree of your affinity for shoes, this is the book for you! Loaded with truisms, witticisms and plenty of shoe fanatacism, "Bootism" is a real treat for your feet! You know you'd love to receive it as a gift, so stock up and send it to all your shoe-loving girlfriends. Fetishists, look elsewhere; this is a pure paeon to swell shoes, not what you're thinking.
