1: Swept Away
I bought this as a present and for myself, mostly because of the water/sand proof novelty. But as soon as I started reading through the selections of short stories, I was mesmerized and lost in the tides of other beach worlds. It was one thing not to worry about getting the book wet, and certainly another to be entranced by the story selection. As all the stories had an ocean feel, you couldn't help but look up from your beach chair and search for that shark in the cove, or the largest dead man that floated into a small ocean-side village. Loved it, and hope to see another selection soon!

2: Great idea, but not practical
My rating of this book has less to do with content that with its structure. The idea of having a water-resistant book at the beach is great. But you should be aware that it is HEAVY. Although it is about the size of a regular paperback, it is much heavier - not the kind of book that you can hold in one hand.
For that reason alone, I wouldn't recommend buying it.
