Overall rating and opinion of "If life stinks get your head outta your buts"

[Alicia09]

I didn't care for the author's arrogant attitude. Some of his facts and ideas were good. I read the official review for the book, and I agree with the reviewer that this might be a good book for younger readers. It will help them not to make some of the mistakes the author did. It would allow them to start on a confident and well-informed path.

Thank you for pointing out some of the draw backs of this book. I also found the authors tone to be quite arrogant at times. I think that if the author had included more examples and stories of times when he made mistakes, I would have forgiven his cocky attitude. Then again, I've heard some people say they like that writing style.

I have only read the free preview section, but I found that very interesting and thought-provoking. I will probably try to get it for my next review.

I agree. It seems to be very helpful and inspirational. I plan to add it to my shelf.

[Samy Lax]

The idea behind this book is spectacular. However, I find most points made by the book tp be something I have learnt by myself in life through experiences. So, I didn't find it too personally helpful.

[Sharill Rasowo]

Although I have only read the free sample on Amazon, I found the very little I read to be thought provoking. This is definitely a book I would recommend to people in need of guidance.

This book is not interesting to read. It did not inspire me. The language used in the entire book is informal.
There are many errors in the book. Language errors.
Poor paragraphing. The title makes little sense to any serious reader.

But is that really the way to advice his readers?
The formatting of the chapters is not upto to any good standard.
Even if the author was addressing the general audience, the language used makes the authors book sound awkward.

The conclusion is also not interesting to read.

I like this book. It’s really beneficial for people that are looking for direction in their lives. I appreciate the author trying to help people and sharing their story. I would definitely recommend this book to people who need it.

I have not had the opportunity to read the whole book, but from the sample I read, I think this is a good self-help book that would be helpful especially for teenagers since they are just starting out in life. It will help shape their thought pattern and ultimately lead them to achieving their dreams.

I gave this one a 4 out of 4 because I thought it was easy to apply what he was teaching, and I did enjoy some of the humor he put into the writing. I enjoyed reading about his own personal faults and how he went about making changes in his life, and I thought what he shared was simple enough so that others could follow through. I liked how he had the opportunity for readers to initial the last page to make a commitment to doing what he had just laid out in the chapter. I did not find anything I did not like about it, and I thought any adult would enjoy the book, but I wished I would have read it when I was younger.

I just have to say that the title made me laugh. Very well chosen

I had the pleasure of reviewing this book: viewtopic.php?f=24&t=71276. It needs mild editing, or at least the digital Kindle copy I read did but, otherwise, I felt it was practical, straightforward, and entertaining. I would recommend it to others for sure.

[Laura Del]

To me, the book is just hyped common sense. I found it boring and useless. It reminded me why I stay away from self help books.

[amandathebibliophile]

I didn’t care for the author’s superior tone. I approach self help books with an open mind but this one just didn’t do anything for me. It felt at times like the author was working his way up to selling a motivational program of sorts. I was not a fan of this book at all.

[Sophy Chunge]

I have not yet read the book, but it has a catchy title with the pun. I will grab a copy to see how good it is inside. I see a lot of people are recommending it.

[melissy370]

This book was a mixed bag for me. The author did have some catchy phrases and the parts on responsibility and changing your thinking is true. However, he didn't really give any concrete ways to go about achieving these things. The repetitiveness was off the charts and there errors throughout. Also, as others have noted, he came off as not genuine in caring, but as arrogant. I gave this book 2 out of 4 stars.

So true.
