I purchased a similar product from at the same price from a competitor. I was quite surprised to find that this product was much smaller and the inscription quality was barely adequate. I cannot recommend buying from this supplier.

What to buy for a 70 year old? This interesting book was just thing, it was passed around at the party all night!
Hilbilly29 Aug 2018
This was a lovely idea for a Special Birthday presant. My friend thought it was lovely, as she didn't remember most of what had happened in the last 30 years. Would totally recommend as a Special Birthday gift.

The personalised inside page consists of a sticker that is not put onto the page straight, the paper quality is poor, and I am not sure that photographs of John Torode with Gregg Wallace, Ricky Tomlinson and other 'celebrities' are iconic. For example pictures for 1995 include a Coronation Street actor and the pop star Prince, when this was the year of the Brixton riots and the year that the first British born person walked in space; surely more iconic and historic images? I think the concept is great, but poorly executed.
Absolutely beautiful keepsake for my daughters 5th birthday in March!! Excellent personalisation, something beautiful for her to keep for years to come!! The book is massive and worth every single penny!!

Pleased with quick delivery
Pleased with quick delivery, lovely story for my Great Grandson who is 2half years old. Disapointed with the actual quality overall for the price you charged, regarding the quality of the thiness of the paper. Was expecting thicker pages.

90th Birthday Gift
We bought this for a relative's 90th Birthday present who lives in the south of England and as we live in the north it was delivered directly to him. It arrived on the day of his Birthday and he was absolutely delighted with it. He wouldn't have been happier if we'd given him £1,000. Thank you so much for a unique gift

I wanted to get my daughter something
I wanted to get my daughter something special for her birthday and In The Book did not disappoint! I bought her a personalised princess book which was great because it allowed me to put a picture of her inside and a special birthday message. When it arrived it came in a keepsake Disney box. My daughter absolutely loves it!
I would highly recommend In The Book because they provide a fast delivery service and quality products.
