Okay, so I bought this 'beginner's guide' expecting some next-level Alexa wisdom... but honey, this pamphlet is thinner than my patience when Alexa mishears 'play jazz' as 'play ads'.

The good? It does explain basic stuff like how to say 'Alexa' without sounding like you're summoning a demon (though let's be real - sometimes she DOES feel possessed). The diagrams are cute if you've never seen a cylindrical speaker before.

The bad? 26 pages of info I could've Googled in 26 seconds. Half the book is basically Amazon ads pretending to be content. My grandma's church newsletter has more substance!

Final verdict: If you're tech-savvy enough to order this on Amazon, you don't need it. Save your $5 for when Alexa randomly decides to buy itself a subscription to polka music.
