Is this a 'first word on the page' book test?

Yes and No Yes because basically "Alice" will give you several f#$es , and No because in the completementary eBook I explain the approaches that are recommended to create a deeper impression than just a "first word on the page", which is too explicit and unnecessary to create more freedom and casualness

Ordered after speaking with Pablo. This sounds really good. I’m a sucker for a good book test as it hits hard in my shows and this seems to fill a void i’ve been looking for in a test. I’ll share my thoughts when I receive the book but after a brief skim of the booklet, it looks fantastic.

How would this compare to, say, Doppleganger book tests? ie: The variety of reveals and invisibility of process.

Yes, that's some of them. I'm not sure how many Dopps there are in total, but I have one of the later titles and I like it a lot.
I'm guessing you're not familiar with them, though, so I'll try a different approach. With Dopps, one can have the volunteer open the book anywhere and begin reading silently. Immediately some reveals can begin, without the volunteer saying anything. The volunteer can always read silently, then have the performer reveal what they are looking at. Names, feelings, full sentences. The volunteer can even flip through pages and the performer can continue doing reveals. The downsides, for me, are the amount of memory work involved. Apparently my memory is not what it once was (probably too full of D&D rules to put more info into it) So how would this compare? I find the cover design and price tag, along with the promised reveals, to be very compelling - but I also look for a large degree of freedom in book tests. I don't like having to do reveals only from the top or bottom of the page, for example.

WitchDocChris, no memory work at all.
With "Alice" you have several different options in terms of sources in the freely open page.

Words, feelings, drawings and more revelations are possible
Any updates on this guys. The above sentence describing the possible reveals sounds really interesting. Being able to describe feelings from a sentence being read would be fantastic. Also the possibility of using it for a drawing revelation is appealing. Is anyone working with this? cheers |

I haven't actually worked with it yet, as the gig I had purchased this for fell through.
Pros: It's a quality book, with a variety of reveal options. It looks like a copy of Alice that would be on someone's book shelf. Cons: There are too many restrictions for me. I may end up using this if I do a specific project that will allow for the restrictions, but it just isn't the method I prefer to use. Overall, I think it's good for what you pay. If you take some time to think about the presentation and use the proper techniques of performing mentalism, this will allow you to create a solid moment of mystery and engagement. It's just not my preferred method.

It is a story that they already know, so the naturalness of the book is implied. Regarding the "restrictions", they should feel natural in performance, and each performer needs to just make it work using his own style. I am very casual in performance so I direct the focus to the word that I want just by casual instructions, based in the principles and scripts that I offer in the complementary eBook.

Right. As I said, if you're performing right, the restrictions will be invisible/non-existant to the audience. As I said, it's my own personal preference to have a different approach.
