I have to admit that it took me way more time than just 1 hour to read this one. I’m not sure it was so much more put all the time I spent with it together, but I simply couldn’t read it in one sitting. Not that it’s long, or hard to digest. It’s not. But I expected something light and inspiring, and I’m not sure that’s what I got. In a way, yes, it’s exactly that: there are relatively short texts and many things are explained via illustrations, and the aim is clearly to give step by step tips to inspire creativity. However, it felt hard to concentrate on it after a while. I don’t know if it’s the style or the length or the fact that I’m not completely sure creativity works this way, but I didn’t feel inspired to wanting to have ideas at all. I just wanted to stop reading and doing something else – or simply reading something else.
It does not mean that I found this book completely useless! There are tips and methods I really think would be helpful when someone’s (even I’m) stuck and needs to speed up their brain, but in general I think it’s suitable for a ‘save the day when I’ m not in the mood for ideas, yet I have to come up with something very soon’ situation, and not an everyday method to use for having genius ideas. And, at least considering the people I see around me in my life, most of the tips are only working when you have an incredible amount of free time on your hand – which is something most people don’t.

Anyways, I gave this book 3 stars, as in maybe I recommend it – because there are a couple of useful tips, and it might work better for some people than for me.

I obtained some helpful tips from reading this book, but found it to be lacking in depth. I went into it expecting to find deep, well-ordered methods of sparking creativity. What I found felt more like a book of “500 ways to brainstorm.” At times, it was hard to figure out exactly what the object of the chapter was. On a positive note, it was colorful and fun to read. Personally, the writing style didn't "click" with me, but I can see how it would be helpful to some people.

Nice little book with great ideas on how to come up with more ideas yourself.
I personally find it a bit ... much? I guess would be a good word, since after about sixty pages of more or less being constantly told how to find more creativity and what can be done and found on inspiration in this place or that... it became to be a bit much for me. I don't want to constantly see everything around me as a starting point for great ideas. It's a good suggeation but in reality that would be horrendously over simulations!
So all in all it's a nice idea but is kinda wish the authors would have either made the book a bit shorter or sectioned it a bit differently?
Completes personal option, cleary!

It does deliver a huge amount of ideas on where the reader can find his or her inspirations.
That alone makes it a very supective kind of book.

I would recommend taking this book i very tiny bite sizes and over a longer period of time to find your personal perfect idea sweet spot, instead of getting bombarded with all those positbilities the authors come up with.

I quite enjoyed this book. I found it very useful and offered great tips and ideas! Yes, I would recommend.

I randomly saw this title on Netgalley and the cover jumped at me - in a good way! It looked fun and playful, everything someone stuck in a creative rut would appreciate! I'm about to write my bachelor thesis in the field of Digital Marketing and I honestly got some amazing tips and tricks from this handy little book, that I will use throughout the process of writing my report. It will especially be very helpful in the beginning, to narrow down my problems and keep my focus.

I love the vibrant color schemes, it really gave you a fun experience as a reader and I also appreciated the small quizzes here and there to get to know yourself and your strengths better. Overall, I thought this was a fun and creative way to get some very useful tips, thoughts and processes across to someone in need of motivation and a bit of direction to reach their goal.

This is a great, fun and colorful guide on brainstorming.
I enjoyed the short quizzes and the various suggestions on brainstorming, idea generation and more so about place. I've never thought that the place you're in could affect your brainstorming session. So, thanks Netgalley for the eARC, this was a fun read.

A great tool to help you brainstorm on your own. As a writer, I sometimes find myself staring at a wall dumbstruck instead of actually creating ideas. I really liked the quiz at the beginning to help you find your brainstorming type (which was spot on, BTW). The tips were great, and some of them were surprising...others obvious. It was a great combination of both to keep me engaged and I picked up some great techniques to help me in the future.
