After the successful launch of my Progressive Book Test, I wanted to see what I could do to improve it. You talked and I listened. The one thing most of you agreed on is that the closeup title is just a tad too big to fit comfortably in your pocket. I have the solution for you. Introducing "The Strolling Book Test!"

This set of 3 books will function exactly the same way as the Progressive Book Test series. It will use the same methods as well as the same set of long words. As with the Progressive Book Test, there will be nothing to memorize and the routine is designed to progress in the same manner.

The Strolling Book Test titles are 4.25" x 6.87" in size making them the smallest of all 12 books. They are designed to be able to fit comfortably in your pocket, making them suitable for strolling magic and mentalism. The strolling titles are:
  • A Clockwork Orange
  • Crime and Punishment
  • The Scarlet Pimpernel
Another big request was more hands-off methods like that taught in the "Moby Dick Bonus Title." I have built a streamlined version of this into The Strolling Book Test which allows you to perform the progressive routine using all 3 books with just one quick peek!

The best part of all of this is it pairs with the Closeup and Standup variations of The Progressive Book Test allowing you to round out your collection and truly have multiple books of all sizes and finishes for those looking to create a very "off the shelf" feel to their act!

The following methods are included in the "Strolling Book Test" set:
  • Flashback - Know the first word of any page without needing to force the page or even know the page number.
  • Flashforward - Know a word on the first line of the next page. Again, without needing to force the page or even know the page number.
  • Inception - Rather than fish for a thought of word, you can plant the word you want in the spectator's mind instead! Surefire! Simple! Clean!
  • Any Word on Any Page - Allow the spectator to choose a word from anywhere in the book. You don't even need to be holding the book. It can be done completely hands-off! No peaking, forcing, or guessing! You can be in the other room when the word is chosen! It is so clean!
  • The Progressive Book Test - Use a single book to divine 3 thought of words from three different parts of the book at once! Again, no fishing, forcing, or guessing! You instantly know all three words as soon as the spectator chooses a page. Each word gets progressively bigger and more impossible to know!
  • Tossed Out Book - Toss out one or multiple books and read 6 spectator's minds at once! Again, nothing to memorize and the words can be chosen from anywhere on the page making this one of the cleanest TOB routines out there!
  • Bonus Scarlet Method - Reveal two more words in addition to the standard six words for the "Any Word on Any Page" and "Tossed Out Book" methods.
  • Bonus Clockwork Punishment Method - Use the Flashback method to peak at a word on the first line in the "Crime and Punishment" Book.
BUT WAIT THERE IS MORE!

These 3 book titles have also been added to the "KDP Digital Book Test" as well so you can perform using these books with only your phone! Carry them with you anywhere you go! Purchase any Progressive Book Test book and access these digital copies FREE!

Easy to Install and Looks Great
Color: White, Size: 15.7 Inches
These floating shelves are a great addition to my daughter room space! They were very easy to install, and the instructions were clear and straightforward. The material feels solid and durable. I also really appreciated that the package included all the necessary hardware and materials, which made the setup even more convenient. They look great on the wall and serve their purpose perfectly. Highly recommend!

Quality Assurance Lacking
Color: White, Size: 15.7 Inches
The first set I ordered was great; super easy to install, no issues. The second set I ordered the holes on the bottom of the shelves did not match up with the holes on the bar that secures the shelves to the wall so it was impossible to attach the shelves correctly. I'm still trying to figure out a solution. TO SUMMARIZE: First set perfect; second set unusable

Solid Floating Shelves 🛠️🏠
Color: Black, Number Of Shelves: 4, Size: 15.7in
I have installed four sets of the black floating shelves in my office. They are made of high quality materials, featuring a sophisticated black woodgrain finish with a natural texture. Supposedly, each unit can handle up to 22 pounds, though I would not recommend testing that limit with your vintage bowling ball collection if you value your flooring. They are awesome. The value is good for a set of two. Each shelf measures 22x7x1 (56x17x3 cm) inches, providing a decent amount of storage for books or decor. The installation was straightforward since the hardware for multiple wall types was included. They work well in the kitchen for spices or in the bedroom for personal belongings. One tip for a secure fit: use a level during installation and make sure the bracket is flush against the wall before sliding the shelf on, or your photos might look like they are sliding off a mountain 📐 These shelves offer a clean, modern look and stay stable once mounted correctly. They are a practical choice for adding functional display space to any room 🖼️

Good looking shelves and easy install - skip the included drywall anchors
Color: Black, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 22in
I installed these shelves in a bedroom to get things off my dresser and some decor. Once mounted they look really nice. The black finish looks clean and modern and they blend in well with the room. Installation was pretty straightforward. The metal bracket mounts to the wall first and then the shelf slides over the bracket. As long as you take your time lining things up it’s a simple project. One thing I strongly recommend is not using the white plastic self-drilling drywall anchors that come with the kit. I’ve used that style before on other projects and they tend to strip out easily and leave larger holes in drywall. I used better anchors instead and the shelves mounted much more securely. The rest of the hardware worked fine and once installed the shelves feel solid and hold items well. Pros - Clean modern look - Easy installation - Feels solid once mounted - Good size for books or decor Cons - The small level included isn’t very accurate — use your own level - One of the metal brackets was slightly bent out of the box but straightened out easily Helpful tip: Use your own level and better drywall anchors if you have them. It makes installation easier and the shelves will mount much more securely. Final thoughts: For the price these are nice looking floating shelves that install easily and work well for light storage and decor.
