Forget the Mystery Method and that other PUA stuff and get back to common sense!, March 5, 2008
About a year ago, I began reading various pick-up artist material, including Neil Strauss' The Game, The Mystery Method by Mystery, and From the Bar to the Bedroom by the editors of AskMen.com. The information in those books was quite useful, but I felt the material that pick-up artists use didn't fit my personality. I tried using that material on a few ladies, and it seemed so unnatural and uncomfortable to me. I successfully creeped out a few of them. I felt like an actor reading from a horrible script. Plus, don't get me started on "the seven hour rule." Sex happens when she wants it to happen. You can't force it on her.
Every guy is different. He must use the strengths in his personality to become successful with women. What I like about this book is that tells you what not to do, what to do, what is going through her mind, and what she expects you to do. All you need to have is a decent personality, and the information in the book will guide you the rest of the way.
The book is nothing more than common sense that guys tend to overlook. The chapters are short and to the point. I read the whole thing in about two hours. By the way, she is hilarious but right, sadly.
If you had a bad role model growing up or your dad taught you absolutely nothing about women, I strongly suggest this book and only this book. It's all you really need. Please, don't buy into the whole PUA thing. The next book you should buy should be on tantric sex.

ok, February 25, 2006
Every book about self-improvement is interesting to read, and contains some useful advices, and this one is no exception, but unfortunately it's far from comprehensive and it's overpriced.
In the introduction the author tells you that you do not need to have a lot of money or to look great. Then the first half of the book basically tells you that you need to have money: find a better paying job, buy a nice car and your own home. The second part of the book actually offers some useful advice, like: On a date, don't talk too much about yourself, instead ask questions about her and let her talk, because supposedly that's what she would like; When your girlfriend starts yelling at you for no reason, defend yourself, but don't argue too much. Instead, leave and come back later.

Good, but not perfect, June 5, 2005
I bought the e-book version hoping to improve my dating skills. The book is generally helpful and removes some confusions men generally have about women. The chapters are short but to the point. The main theories in the book confirms with some views I've read from a book written by a men. Both have some extreme views which I won't take seriously or apply completely. What I feel missing in this book is how to pick the women that's right for you. It answered a lot of questions on how to treat women and what women likes, but no much about how to handle certain situations, such as how to handle a women just got out of a bad relationship (there will be a lot of curve balls). It's a good book, but if you meet a complicated women, more help is needed :).
