In-depth
Granted I'm writing this prior to our trip, but I have done some comparisons with friends that have already been and they all said they wish they had such a guide before and during their trip.
Great size
I’m sure this is a great book for Bali, but I used the larger lonely planet and returned this because I figured the other has all of this information in it as well.
This is a very deceptive and dishonest guide
I bought this for an upcoming trip to Bali, only to discover it covers just a small percentage of the island. A complete rip-off! Furthermore, it seems to be aimed primarily at the "party crowd" and lacks substantial information. DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!
Teeny Tiny Book!
Didn’t expect the book to be so teeny tiny, so the material itself font wise inside the book is very small. Book probably no bigger than my palm. However seems packed full of information and a nice gift for those travellers or holiday seekers. Would perhaps like a bigger version of normal book size though!
Information and photos in pocket size.
Very informative in a pocket version. Easy to read and full of essential information advice photos.
Average
I suppose this is a pocket sized guide, but it was a bit light on detail.
Handy little pocket guide!

Too little detail
Wasn’t detailed enough for a two week trip.
