Looking for Mr Right (Hardcover)

Most people would think that a book advising women about selecting mates would be appealing only to women. That assumption is false in this case. Looking for Mr. Right is good humor for women and men, and it is also a great dose of humility for men to see themselves and women often see them.

Looking for Mr. Right would be a delightful book if it only had the photographs, without any captions. Combined with the captions, I found myself laughing almost nonstop as I read the book. Let me give you a few examples to help you get the idea.

In one photograph, a man is playing a clarinet standing in water up to his mouth, holding his hands and chin up. The caption says, "Men are ridiculously pig-headed and stubborn."

In another image, a man is totally chained in a small container looking hunted. The caption notes, "They are completely unable to express their feelings."

In another photo, a man is having the width of his mustache measured (it's 16 inches long). The book comments, "Men are obsessed with size and appearance."

A grainy picture reveals a man leaping from the top of a tall bridge. This represents the way that men "will go to great lengths to avoid commitment."

There's a contortionist view of a woman literally bent over backward holding a flash light to peer under a car. "You'll do everything you possibly can to maintain the relationship momentum," notes another page.

Almost every image and caption is of this high caliber.

On the serious side, the book's theme is to portray that playing the dating game in the traditional way may help women find a man, but not the right one. The author goes on to suggest that women are pretty terrific in many ways, and should enjoy being themselves without overly compromising themselves to reach marriage to a man who isn't worthy. Although almost every woman's parents has provided just this sort of advice, coming in this hilarious form makes the advice seem more sincere and compelling. I also suspect that a woman who reads this book and finds herself in one of these situations will be able to get a good laugh out of seeing herself more objectively, and may perhaps avoid making a mistake.

Be yourself . . . but be realistic about members of the opposite sex!

Where else can illusions cause you to think you see good things, where the thorns actually exceed the petals?

Looking for Mr Right? This hilarious book will cheer you, guide you and remind you of your great worth as a woman. This pocket sized book will take you right back to where you first encountered the other sex, through the tales and traumas of dating and perhaps even out through other side. Some very clever insights into the male nature really do make sense and will remind all singletons that inner poise really is the way forward!
