The Playbook: Suit up. Score chicks. Be awesome.

A fun, entertaining read based on The Playbook from how i met your mother.Some of the plays in the book were laugh-out-loud funny and very familiar. Like the scuba diver from episode 8 of Season 5. My only problem, however, is that the book is too short.Barney Stinson is one of the most contradictory, full of himself and disgustingly amoral creature ever. But I still find him adorable for all his undesirable qualities, for he still possesses some principles in which he is too embarrassed to show. But most importantly, he exudes 'awesome.'This book will definitely appeal to fans of HIMYM.

The basic premise of the book is a guide of highly unrealistic schemes to seduce women based on the recommendations and experience of Barney Stinson, Neil Patrick Harris's character, from the television show "How I Met Your Mother". Honestly I have never seen the show and was given the book as a gag gift. A few of the entries were funny but it's hard to get a chuckle out of most of them. If one is looking for a good laugh I feel it would be better to read something else.

After reading The Bro Code, I knew I just absolutely HAD to read ThePlaybook. Sure it was funny enough, but it didn't exactly live up to my expectations I guess. I did laugh but I felt like Barney Stinson could have done better. Dont get me wrong, I enjoyed this book and I do recommend it. The page layout is especially nice. BUT I suggest you read it before The Bro Code so that you won't be let down like I was.

I liked it better than The Bro Code. 98% of the plays are crazy, but I was actually able to pick up a line or two from this one. But I think you have to watch the series to get some of the references . (Ted as Billy Idol. :) )

El libro es gracioso, y tiene una sección de consejos para mujeres, pero no es nada imprescindible (tal vez el que no fuera super fan de HIMYM influyo en que no me fuera "espectacular"), pero a todas luces el personaje de Barrney se trasluce y reconoce, así que si es que siempre deseaste ser un don juan empedernido como el he aquí sus trucos.



P.D. No había reparado en la utilidad del papel aluminio en las artes amorosas

Hilarious!!! This was a quick read, as expected, but worth every page. I loved the layout of each play and giggled my way through every play. Particularly loved the bonus Playbook for Chicks

funny from time to time but it got old quickly
