And the rest of the title is "The Woman's Guide to a Man's Brain"...
In all honesty, I was surprised at the 213-page length of this book! As a female married to a male for 16 years, I can tell you that men don't really seem all that complicated. I mean, its like the comedian Jeff Foxworthy says, men are easy to figure out, they want a beer and to see something naked. So, when I saw the title of this book and knowing Jeff's concise summation of the male persona and psyche...well, I just had to see what this book was all about--and how it was only more than 2 ages!!
This is the second book I've read by Mike Bechtle. Just as in "You Can't Text a Tough Conversation", Mike has clearly done his homework again. There are several instances where Mike quotes or sites findings to support his statements.
The chapters are broken down like subtopics to 5 main parts that Mike wants to discuss, Chapters and inner-chapter sections are easy to read with good examples and multiple examples.
I found myself dog-earing several pages because I want to go back and share what I read with my hubby!
This book did enlighten me to some of the how and why behind some of the things my husband does. It also does well at delineating the how and why behind the differences between men an women so that we as women can achieve the "a ha". It's not strictly all about men. Instead it does break down the difference between the sexes so we as females can relate to our own sex and then understand why we relate to men in certain ways--or not. And that is why it was 213 pages!
Overall, a very informative read in a enjoyable format. I give it 5 stars!
(I was given this book for free by the publisher in exchange for an honest review.)

Roscoe
A good walking buddy and awesome frisbee catcher! Life cut short by a brain tumor.
Tuffy
If ever there was a candidate for Dog Heaven, it would be Tuff. Tuff was put to rest December 7, 2012. At almost 14 years old, he threw the longevity curve for dogs of his breed-makeup and size. He battled 2 types of cancer and Cushing's Disease as well as arthritis. Faithful to the end and never grumpy, depite the constant care and nagging from me. Always the protector, gentleman and companion--you will be sorely missed by all who had the opportunity to know you.
Cranky Thomas
Ever wonder why it's called "Life On CT Farm"? The horse you see in the pictures is Cranky Thomas, a registered quarter horse gelding. He was born May 5, 1980 in Galion, Alabama and passed away August 3, 2004 on CT Farm--his farm. He originally belonged to my husband, but I adopted him and I think he adopted me. We competed together in contest classes at local horse shows. But, an old injury finally slowed him down and I retired him in 2000. He was a loving and patient being that I completely trusted and admired. There will never be another like him, never. He meant so much to me that I named our farm after him as well as my company, Cranky T. LLC. He's gone now, but is still with me and now you.
