Humourous look at the dating scene. Doubtful that you'll find any truely essential/useful information from here. Instead, you'll get a lighthearted glimpse at some of the Worst Case things which can happen during dating. Funny the first time you read it, but doesn't have the long staying power of something you'd keep on your shelf for years.

For any parent who has children reaching or in the dating ages. Also good for some parents who find themselves in a jam with their spouse.

Not a serious book, but very funny. It reminded me that through all the crap in dating you just have to laugh sometimes because when you look back it's funny! You need to have a good sense of humor to read this book.

Good for the cynical, those with a dry or raw sense of humor. Funny- just not my style.

I don't know what I was expecting. A laugh, I guess. I was not impressed with this book.

This was obviously aupposed to be a humor book, or at least that was how I interpreted it.

I did not enjoy this book. It was not funny although I usually love satire. It is a very quick read; it took me maybe half an hour. I just don't think it's worth it.

As for the actual advice? It's all pretty straightfoward and obvious if someone wants to take it literally.
