Well that was just plain ridiculous. If you like the popular television series "How I Met Your Mother" you will understand this book in all of its satirical nonsense. If you haven't been formally introduced to the persona that is Barney Stinson, you will likely be offended by nearly everything this book delivers. However, since that particular character, in that particular television series, makes me laugh, this book delivered the heralded misogynistic bravado I expected. NOT TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY, his bombastic and exploitative view of women as the pursuit of happiness I do not agree with. I do, on the other hand, enjoy the exploitation of time-honored stereotypes and the humor to be gained through well crafted satire. Listeners beware, this will make you laugh, and will make you uncomfortable at times. Just laugh it off.

Este libro sí es gracioso. No se necesita conocer la serie "how I met your mother" para disfrutarlo (yo nunca la he visto).
Lo escuché mientras iba y venia de mi trabajo, y me gusta mucho el formato de audiolibro para los de comedia. La narración de Neil P Harris es muy buena.
Lo recomiendo a todo el mundo, menos a quien sea tan feminista que no pueda reirse de chistes ultra machistas.

Let's start with the positives. I liked the formating, the little graphs and games but that's about it.
I'm sure that when it was published this book was OK and well received. Now tho, it's more of a satire of how man who are not confident with their masculinity act. The book made me roll my eyes and laugh bitterly at the way most man act and think.
That's sad bc I love Neil Patrick Harris and HIMYM (although the show has some pretty misogynistic ideas and lines too).
