Customer comments on this selection. Decent dating advice, great stories!This book was recommended to me by a friend and I'm glad that I decided to purchase it. I'm in a "book club" so to speak, in which we study the social sciences and while "God" isn't exactly heavy on helping one improving their social skills, the book was never touted as such. What it does deliver on is funny, often times hilarious tales of a traveling comedian's dating disasters and the lessons he learns along the way.  Good. Not Great.I can't say that I didn't enjoy this book, but I think the books by Neil Strauss are much funnier and more educational of the pickup. But this book is supposed to be a humorous read and it succeeds in this objective. I think it gets kind of old about midway through, but I hunkered down and forced myself to read to the end and thought that things picked back up again.  terrific, the author cleary communicates his ideasthis is well written, with a lot of insightful ideas and thoughts on the subject. You should also read some of his ezine articles, they're terrific as well.  Boring and monotonousDragged on and halfway through I couldn't finish it. This guy is the type of guy who thinks he is funnier than he actually is. Many other books out there that are similar and more entertaining. I think a lot of these 5-star reviews are contrived. Entertaining but not that insightfulWhen I heard this book was by a comedian I was expecting it to be hilarious since there is so much material that can be derived through dating, but it's not particularly funny. The dating advice this book has is decent, although pretty basic (which in my opinion is all that matters but it just isn't that interesting to read). The value this book had to me was that the stories are pretty interesting but they aren't going to shock you unless you and your friends were hermits in college and have never heard slutty stories or anything like that. There's a guy called Max Tucker who has some more outrageous stories which you can get online- just google him. |
