BORING BORING BORING
This is one of the worst books I've ever read. A collection of boring, stupid stories. Even worse "lists" of tips for a big night out. A few stories that brought the smile to my face. The rest was utter rubbish !! This book is a total waste of money and saying it is funny, witty etc is a BIG FAT LIE ! Sorry guys, I can not recommend this so called "book" as a read anything, except maybe to fall asleep to !

BORING
I read Girl's About Town and loved it - and I thought this book would be the same but some of the stories were so dull and boring I can't believed they were ever published. The other book was great and the stories were very interesting - this was torture - I didn't even finish the book it was that bad.

Big Night Out covers everything!
BIG NIGHT OUT is a great book covering everything you need for a great night out on the town. It is full of tips, solutions to common partying problems, and great short stories. I was laughing the entire time i read it. The pieces are all written by celebrities and the book benefits a good cause called war child. I especially enjoyed the short story by maggie alderson, the hangover breakfast recipe, and the music tips, but i loved almost every other story too. This book is part of a collection that includes two other books, which are also great and written in the same style and manner. They include: GIRLS NIGHT IN, and GIRLS NIGHT OUT/BOYS NIGHT IN. They too benefit the war child program. An overall summary of this book would be to say it is a humorous compilation of pieces written by celebrities to give you some courage to go and have a great time! It makes you want to throw out those old and dull clothes, and put on something snazzy and suitable for a wild night out. I only gave this four stars because i save the last star for timeless masterpieces, but if i were rating BIG NIGHT OUT using most peoples generous rating style it would receive that extra star.
