Summary: Quite excellent
Review: Quite excellent. Written in a conversational and relaxed tone, the book was a real surprise. I've read it twice already. I highly recommend it without reservation.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Intentionally Excellent
Review: The June 7, 2003 review is all wrong and does not seem to "get it." Could it be an author of a competing book? Probably. Each point is exagerrated and inaccurate.

[Another reviewer flipped through the book at an airport, read one sentence, got on the internet, tracked down this book and decided to write a whole review on it? Sounds fishy. Probably another competing author.]

-The book says that SOMETIMES (not all the time) when a girl is not responsive it is because her switch is off (e.g., she has a BOYFRIEND). Nothing wrong with that statement in the book.

-Girls don't like being grabbed by surprise while they are walking somewhere. Book says it is better to wait until a girl is situated and comfortable before approaching her. The book DOES NOT say to follow or stalk a girl. You can watch a girl with your eyes and wait until she is not moving. Nothing wrong with that statement in the book.

-Often guys will compete over the same girl. The book DOES NOT talk about fistfights breaking out among guys. The book tells you how to compete with other guys in cool and calm manner. (e.g., tell the girl you'll talk to her when she's a has a minute).

-If a girl lies and says she has a boyfriend, then that is GOOD. You don't have to waste time talking to someone who is not interested. The point in the book is that you shouldn't waste time talking to girls who have boyfriends or say that they do. If you ask them if they have a boyfriend after five minutes, you a better off than waiting a half hour. THE BOOK IS RIGHT ON TARGET ON THAT.

-The 5 opening lines listed are supposed to be said in good humor just to break the ice, not to hit a home run. If you say in a casual, fun way you can't go wrong. I don't know what the problem is of the angry writer who calls men "scumbags" several times in her review. Her "scumbag" is just a guy trying to talk to her and get to know her.

-Alcohol is a social drink and always has been. The book carefully says not to drink too much. It says to be careful and just have one or two to loosen up and not be stiff. Alcohol is served at every party, wedding, social function, sporting event, concert, etc. in the free world. What is the writer's problem?

The book is totally informative and very humorous too. The book works. It is great and has helped me get tons of girls. If any book will change your life, it is this one. I have recommended it to all my friends. I have had to buy it a few times because I never get it back when someone borrows it. Other people take it without asking and never give it back.

I would love to debate that angry writer. She's clueless (if it even is a girl - you don't know on the internet).

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: there are better pick-up books
Review: The reviewer "unintentionally funny" is apparently a man-hater but I have to agree this is not a good book for picking up babes.I would recommend a book written by Eric Weber or one of the more legitimate authors on the subject.This book may make you look even more foolish than you would otherwise.Not a bad read for a laugh though.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Well Done - A+
Review: This book definitely answered all the questions I have floating around in my head about what to do when talking to girls. I'm amazed that anyone would give this book less than 4 stars. For the price, you get a lot out of it. I've read a lot of the book more than once - That is always a sign that the book is a good reference source.

I'm always suspicious of any book reviews on Amazon that bash a book and then refer to some other product like a website or another similar book. It is free advertising for competitors. Whatever. This is an excellent book. I give an A+.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: BRILLIANT!
Review: This book has actually changed the way I spend my free time. One of the big barriers to going out to clubs/bars for me was that often I can't co-ordinate with friends. I travel a lot and work very hard. The authors suggestion: Have a slightly vexed look on your face...look around the room and tell the girls, "my friends will be here in a an hour or so...". The book is filled with practical suggestions. "ASK the girl if she has a boyfriend within the first 5 minutes". What a timesaver. I had thought that was too rude, but actually, it shows that you know what you want, are decisive. The main thing about the book is that it gives you the tools, parameters, techiniques, and Motivation to go out, get what you want, and (this is the important part) have FUN doing it. I would recommend this book to anyone --- even if you've read other books on the subject. Fischbarg's breaks it down to specific lines to be used in specific situations that you Need to know. This book is a must read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Gem
Review: This book is a real gem. I heard the author on the radio in Los Angeles. It's the first time I've ever bought a book based on a radio interview. This book is great. It's funny, informative and tells us guys exactly what we need to know.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: not too bad
Review: This book isnt too bad,but I`ve decided its better to create your own "dialogue" or "rap" with a woman rather than try to copy it verbatim from a silly book.This is not as difficult as it might sound,it takes a basic understanding of human psychology though.The thing to remember is that girls are human beings,they have the same desires and insecurities as guys.I`ve found it helps me to imagine a woman that i`m attracted to taking a big dump,this makes her more approachable for me.That may not work for everyone.

Summary: A Real Surprise
Review: This book was a real surprise. It was much better than I thought it would be. The author really knows what he is talking about in picking up girls. It was extremely funny too. I definitely recommend it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: AMAZING BOOK
Review: This is an amazing book because it is both hysterically funny and immensely informative. The techniques in the book are clear and well-explained. I couldn't put it down until I finished it which is my personal test of whether a book is any good. I am happy to recommend the book to everyone.
