The Men Commandments,
By
This review is from: The Men Commandments (Hardcover)
This book was in my local library and as I had not heard of either Christian O'Connell or the Men Commandments I was curious.
I found it to be well written and highly entertaining, and had to check and ensure that my wife was still at home as Christian's description of his wife was so true to the way that I imagine mine to be that I thought they must be related. I did wonder how he managed to write the book and remain living and actually wrote to him and asked if he was a re-incarnation of his former self following it's publication. He replied that he now knew how Salmon Rushdie felt and that he had gone into hiding. To me, it was a book that you could open at virtually any page and find something amusing or true to life. I have recommended it to many of my friends as, a must read. Christian has put down on paper the subtle differences between men and women in a light hearted manner that is so true to life. To me it was thoroughly enjoyable and I can thoroughly recommend it. David A

Compulsory Marraige Guidance Text,
By
This review is from: The Men Commandments (Hardcover)
What a saviour you have proved to be to mankind. The book completely captures what it's like to live life as a married man in the twenty first century. Reading it has proved life changing as I'm no longer going round wondering why the women in my life are so batty and why they just don't get 'stuff' that I think (or don't think) and do (or don't do)!
I virtually pissed myself laughing out loud at some (actually most) of the observations in the book and the logging of the gene differences is the funniest and most true analysis of genetics to have been undertaken!! Surely a nobel prize of some sort will be winging its way to you before the end of the year. I don't know how many copies of the book you've sold but I must be responsible for a significant proportion as I've recommended it to every mate, mate's wife and passing strangers that I've encountered. You are a liberator of men and relationships and the book should be a standard text in all schools (life skill courses), Relate sessions and divorce pre-hearings. I can feel the divorce rate statistics tumbling over the coming months and years as the text takes hold in society - placed alongside the Oxford Concise Dictionary and the Bible on the book shelves of millions of homes. Other reviews here say its all been said before in other books - who cares, I havent read them and this one's great!!

Nail on the head,
By Hawkeye (Ireland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Men Commandments (Hardcover)
This book is laugh out loud funny. I don't listen to Virgin Radio so this is my first encounter with the wit and wisdom of Christian O'Connell. His commentary on the differences between men and women is sharp, accurate and observant. From the very start of the book, I found myself nodding in agreement with his wry observations and spot-on remarks. I recognise so many traits of both myself and my wife in this book. It's nice to know that nearly all men are basically the same. The only disagreement I have with him is that he hates cats. (I'm a cat person.)
