Title: Local New Yorker
Review: I've lived in New York the past 15 years and I began to realize 2 things. 1) I do not much about the city I live in. 2) I have not done much in the city I live in. I've been reading this book the past 2 weeks on the subway on my to, or from, work. Already I feel like I know NYC a bit more. I'm also planning a vacation later in the year to visit some of these places I've never been to, food I've never tried, or things I've never done.Only con is the font is a bit small, but it is still manageable. Maps and layout are amazing. Highly suggest to anyone waning to know NYC better. Local or tourist alike.

Title: NYC Guide for families
Review: A good guide for families, not quite the best for single people. I have no need to know where great ice cream places are (which please kids), but I might like to know where a good sandwich shop is and where the good bookstores are.

Title: Print too small!
Review: This book is an excellent reference but the font size is tiny. It is very difficult to read, even while wearing readers in a well-lit room. I understand that the book is meant to be portable but it is of no value if I can't see the words.

Review: Il vantaggio di questa mini guida è che è assolutamente tascabile e quindi comoda da portare con se. Naturalmente non ci si può aspettare di avere più di una riga di commento per ogni attrazione o ristorante consigliato (ci sono però alcune pagine di approfondimento dedicate ad alcuni musei o luoghi di interesse). Quello che mi ha lasciato profondamente delusa è il fatto che, nonostante riporti in copertina lâanno 2023 non riporta moltissime delle cose da vedere a New York recenti (Hudson Yards, The Vessel, Little Island, Summit One Vanderbilt ad esempio) ne le novità introdotte per i trasporti come la possibilità di pagare con il cellulare, e nemmeno le informazioni aggiornate sulle gratuita o gli ingressi a offerta dei musei. Infine uno dei ristoranti consigliati (Pure Thai Cookhouse) definito tasty, affordable and classy si è rivelato un disastro, cibo immangiabile, ambiente deludente e caro come gli atri ristoranti Thai, un vero spreco di tempo e denaro. Infine, non esiste un indice, ma solo un indice delle zone per cui dovete sempre avere presente dove si trovi quello che vi interessa. Diciamo che va bene da portare con se, se integrato da altre guide o info.
