Book Reviews of My Boys Can Swim!: The Official Guy's Guide to Pregnancy
Book Review: Not worth your money or time spent reading it
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this book for my husband thinking it would be a cute, funny read for him. It is funny in the beginning but overall ends up sounding sour and rude. The author doesn't seem to be very sensitive toward his own wife or the whole pregnancy experience. I think he tries too hard to be funny and comes off sounding like a jerk who doesn't really care. I have a very high tolerance for stupid humor but this book crosses the line. Save your money and buy something cute for your husband. Book Review: You rock Ian !! (my husband's words)
Summary: 5 Stars
Ian Davis is fantastic! This is the most hilarious pregnancy guide for men (and believe me- my husband has a few of them)- I bought it for him because I thought 'we're on our third-don't want him to adopt the been there, done that attitude' especially as he's one of those very involved men and takes it all so seriously. What a fresh take!! He loves it- we've even purchased them for friends who are expecting as well.
Thanks Ian, it's a great book!!!
Book Review: The Author is not as funny as he thinks he is
Summary: 1 Stars
I read it in about 2 hours. There is no real clinical information here. It is more of an autobiographical account of this guy having a kid. You can ask any of your friends about their pregnancy and get more insight. Book Review: Dumb down version
Summary: 2 Stars
If you don't want to understand much about the pregnency, then this is a great book for your. It has very little detail and talks in very very general terms about things. If you like information i would strongly recommend another book that has much more detail.
I was very disapponted and returned it after 1 hour of reading the book.
Book Review: Husband LOVED it!
Summary: 5 Stars
My husband absolutely loved it! I dunno why exactly, it was kinda short, and I didn't laugh anywhere NEAR as hard as he did, but he loved it. It explains things in a man's perspective I guess. Certain guys will love it, others not so much. My hubby is a bit rough around the edges, so if you have one of those I think he'll like it.
