“This book has a great message for women, but I wanted it to be a book that I could pass on to my daughters. Why oh why did the author need to use profanity? ”
“I have not read the book; amazed at the evolution from a line in SATC to a book and a movie. However; the movie was excellent* strong cast and they hit every mark* go-& enjoy.Then read the book :) ”
“This book totally worked - I read it 3 years ago, and stopped dating the losers that were in this book. I played the right games, and wound up with the love of my life!”
“I loved this book! And I can't wait for the movie! (great cast!) It really /is/ a book of common sense. And the few guys I've known that have read it and/or I've told about it seem to think it's true about them. Guys aren't complicated. They are rather simple. And they like it that way!”
“am i broken? because i was so not into this book. maybe i'm not broken enough, come to think of it. i had to force myself to keep reading it, greg is just too black and white and he seems to do men a disservice by painting them as cavemen dragging around bats or something. i think i understand why the movie keeps being pushed back -- it is based on a super dull book. if it helps you, great. i'll agree on the point not to waste the pretty but holy moly i couldn't sit through this ever again.”
“I am a happily married woman with two beautiful little girls, in large part thanks to this book! It helped reinforce what I already knew to be true but didn't want to recognize. I had been in a highly unsatisfying & dysfunctional relationship for five years hoping he would become the man he said he was while ignoring the man he showed himself to be. After our fifth breakup I read this book & realized it would be our last breakup. No longer could I continue to make excuses for his behavior. It wasn't honest & I deserved better than that. I deserved someone who was a good man & who would love me with as much heart as I would love him. I felt like Greg's comments, while often funny, were so astute they had to be taken seriously. Three months later I met the man of my dreams and I have never once looked back & thought that I made a mistake. It only took me 32 years, four long-term dysfunctional relationships & this ONE book to finally figure it out. You have to let go of what isn't working in order to be present for what will work. Every woman is worthy of love & needs to stop settling on something less than that out of fear of being alone or some misguided sense of needing to "save" someone. Save yourselves ladies & read this book!”
“You know.... I read this many many years too late. It brought back all that pain I felt when I was soo sooo young and "in love". A very good book, but are willing to accept the truth?”
“An absolute eye opener...well but we already did know the truth...but this works as a reality check.......definitely worth a read to get out of those " does- he really-care -abt -me " kind of relations!!!!!!”
“This is a book I recommend to all of my female friends. I read it over and over. I think it's the best darn advice I've ever gotten on men. I've cross verified the advice with men friends and they agree with it. Take it to heart ladies! I wish I had this book at 15. It would have saved me a lot of angst.”
“Hey, this is a no brainer. Ladies, please get a highlighter and read this book. It will open your eyes! When you feel yourself faltering...get it out and read it again with a red pen to underline the parts you highlighted. ”
