Reader reviews for A Beginner's Guide to American Mah Jongg: How to Play the Game & Win
Review summary
Readers widely praise Elaine Sandberg’s guide as a clear, well-organized primer that demystifies American Mah Jongg through step-by-step instruction, quizzes, exercises, and helpful visuals. It’s routinely cited as confidence-building for beginners and a solid refresher for returning players, especially on choosing hands and navigating the Charleston. Many use it as a reference alongside actual play, noting it works best when paired with practice. Minor caveats include sparse coverage of scoring details and less convenient Kindle formatting.
