"I loved this book! If you only take one message away from this book let it be this: You are beautiful, you are worthy of being loved. Greg and Liz provide many examples of what love does NOT look like and while their tales are used to teach, they also entertain. I would recommend this book to every woman on this planet as its big aim is to help inflate women's self esteem, but I'd also go so far as to recommend this book to EVERYBODY because I'm a pop culture fiend and I believe there is value to be found in the things that the masses find interesting."
"I wanted to read this book before seeing the movie, but seeing the movie first did not ruin the good advice of the book. Evidently, I needed to get the hint, so I sat down with a borrowed copy of the book to try and "change my life." (My friend who loaned me the book indicated that it had done that for her.) I have to say that I don't know that my life was changed by reading it. Honestly, it is all common sense. But, when it comes to matters of the heart, as women we rarely want to use our common sense. There have been times where it seems physically impossible for me to use my common sense. Our emotions take over and all that logic flys out of the door. What the book tries to teach women is that we deserve to have a man in our lives that isn't going to make us lose all rational thought. We deserve to be treated like ladies. We deserve the best of what a man has to offer, and, if he isn't offering you his best, well, "he's just not that into you." It's a hard pill to swallow 'cause we all know how fabulous we are, but it is a pill that we need to try and take more often. To the men, I have to say, "Stop Being Chickens!" We will, most likely, not crumble and fall apart if you use those words, "I'm just not that into you." Especially as adult women, you would be amazed at what we are able to handle. Honesty can be difficult, but there are worse things - lying, cheating, disappearing (Did anyone know that men do this?), etc. I know it's tough, but just tell us that you're not feeling it! May we all find the love that we deserve!"
"I only give this book 2 stars (or any stars at all) because of the points this book brings up. The book is silly, demeaning and stupid at times, and I hate to say it, but it's pretty much all true. "Understanding Guys"? Come on. Either way, this book is based on the Sex and the City episode "Pick-A-Little, Talk-A-Little." This is, by far, one of my most favorite SATC episodes ever. It is the one where Burger gives Carrie his book and freaks when she tells him little things about it. He was sharp and cute and awesome, but just not that into Carrie - in a later episode, he broke up with her on a friggen post-it note. Anyway, this book skims the surface on how to recognize if a guy is into you. Look, I love cute, genuine awesome guys who are friendly and sweet and real gentleman. They are out there and not every guy is a dick at heart! There are complicated situations at points in relationships, but when it all boils down to it, let's just put it this way: if he's not calling and shakin' you down for a chat, a date or just simply a hello, why are you worried about it?"
