Between The LinesI ordered this a few days ago.. sounds too good to be true. The basic effect that a torn page from a book accurately describes what the spectator has pieced together from his own thoughts. No writing anything down, it is all thought up on the spot. No swtiching of the page, or gimmicks either.
Anyone ownthis, or have any thoughts?

Got it yesterday, and it is actually quite good! The first person I tried it on was over 80% spot on! I can't wait to try it out some more. I will let you know how it goes.

Between the Lines is a very clever psychologically based book test that can prove a masterful gem in the right hands. I'm actually using it in my Seance shows with the Swami Spirit Altar...the book page held in the little guy's hands as I walk one person specifically but the group indirectly, through the visualization process. This procedure increases you hits but I do not recommend it for inexperienced people or those with nominal people management skills on stage... in other words, KNOW YOUR LIMITATIONS!
The concept behind the effect is actually quite simple and can be exploited in other ways but, like so much in our world, it sometimes takes one person actually following through with an idea before the fires of creativity get started. I can assure you that many major players are using this bit or at least the essence of it in their shows now. But I can't stress how much this routine is not for the novice or show off. It requires some solid planning, scripting and patience.
