I don't usually write reviews unless I find something 5* but thought I would here as all the good ratings convinced me to buy this book and would say it's beginners and intermediate at a push. The majority of the book is made up of really basic creations such as cards (which I'm sorry are NOT bookbinding techniques) and about half are accordion books (made from one piece of folded paper, which again I do not consider these as book 'binding' techniques, although I guess you get a book at the end). Granted I already know a few bookbinding techniques but I only found a couple worth doing and when I did I found myself following the pictures, not the description as I just didn't find it instructive. Overall nice pictures, good for beginners but more advanced with probably find a only a one or two new techniques they do not already know to try, if any.
