This is her newer release and I did enjoy it. Although, I didn't enjoy it as much as the previous one. I didn't find myself laughing out loud as much!

There's a lot more illustrations in this book and there's more to read too. It's not the issue at all. It's actually a preferred thing. I think I just didn't find it as funny and maybe a lot of the "rules" are things that I've heard a lot.

If you love this author, definitely check this one out. It's still good and a really cool, quick read. If you haven't read this author before, read her previous (Eulogy) book first!!

This book was exactly what I needed on this dreary Monday morning.  I wonderful combination of humor and truths had me smiling the entire time.  I could feel myself chucking and nodding along to some of the "tips" and shaking my head but still laughing at others.  I think this would make a great gift for a partner if they see the humor in it; I definitely will be showing this to my husband because I know he has a similar sense of finding humor even in the truthful bits.  Even the forward had me smiling. The drawings were wonderful and I definitely can see myself picking up this book and flipping through it from time to time.

Thanks to the publisher for sending me this unsolicited copy, I had such a fun time reading through and sharing my honest thoughts.

Pleasant but not my cup of tea entirely. I know it's a style choice, but as all the illustrations are overweight middle-aged folk, the humor seems aimed at that same demographic.

These two are the best. I can't stop laughing about the Michelle Obama page.

If you must breather, don't breathe so loudly.

So good! Really funny, I don't think any of it is meant to be taken seriously at all.

Came across this book while cataloging at work and since it was so short, I decided to quickly read it. It was so funny! Some of the best relationship advice, such as resolving your differences by dueling (lol!). This book made me chuckle and I ended up sending several Snapchats to my boyfriend with the caption "This is so us". Great for a fun, laughable read!
