Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

Yes, but probably only to my single buddies. Your females friends may either find this hilarious ... or offensive.

What do you think your next listen will be?

Maybe the new Bro Code for Parents book.

What does Neil Patrick Harris and Barney Stinson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I think the tone and flow of the book was perfectly communicated by NPH, which is something that may not have come across as easily on paper. Also, having NPH / Barney Stinson read the book himself was a big bonus for me as an NPH fan.

Do you think The Playbook needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

They've done one on the Bro Code for Parents. Not sure if they've done others?

Any additional comments?

None.

Everything you'd expect if you're a fan of HIMYM.

'Write a review about The Playbook that becomes so popular your clout skyrockets, then just sit back and pick from the many women as their emails come rolling in.' is my sad attempt at creating one of the plethora of hilarious plays in this book. They range in effectiveness from 1% to 100%. Why would they include in a play book a routine for picking up women that is only effective one out of one hundred times you ask? Because if you pull off that play my friend you are legen.......wait for it........dary!!! lmao.
In all seriousness this was more enjoyable to listen to than the Bro Code, which is another in the Barney Stinson series, although I haven't fully explored the supposedly amazing PDF. At 10.95 for a member, I would pay outright rather than use a credit for this one. Enjoy, as it will have you laughing out loud even if you are by yourself(not as easily achieved as when with others)!

If you're a huge fan of How I Met Your Mother, then this won't really be anything new (remember the episode with the scuba diver?). However it's still hillarious in a Barney-esque way and an entertaining listen. Definitely got some good giggles from it.

Funny!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

For light entertainment, yes.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

You could listen to this book in one listen, like whilst flying in a jet plane. It is light, silly and 'Barney Stinson' is at his best.

Any additional comments?

Warning, do not try this at home. Women are not this stupid and anyone trying these methods is this stupid. Never the less, if you are rich, good looking and famous/powerful then give it a go. Good entertainment.

Just plain silly fun.

Very Funny and Entertaining
