denis leary really hits the nail on the head the way america has lost its balls. it is refreshing to hear the truth from someone even though it might be a little exagerated, but thats ok cause a certain few can see past that and see the point he is trying to make and not just react to the words coming out of his mouth. its time america grows a set and removes filters and hears it like it is. Dr Denis Leary....Job very well done. PS i hate reading and i could not put this book down.
Before this book I never even heard of Denis Leary (I'm not much of a tv person). I simply bought the book because the title was funny, the back cover and the dedication made me laugh so I figured I'd give it a whirl… Basically, if you get through the first two chapters of this book you should be okay, you may even enjoy it. When reading the first chapter I nearly put the book down believing it would read like a senseless-drunken-frat boy wrote it solely for the purpose of trying to be funny without humor or context. However, as I read on the book quickly turned out to be truly comical and light-hearted. Leary opens up about himself, his family and his Irish upbringing. He relates his personal experiences to pop culture, society, life. His satirical humor and personal touch turn the mundane and daily into humorous stories that we can all relate to and laugh at. This personal touch from the hysterical Leary is the only reason the book can carry itself - anyone else telling Leary's stories, or providing the same insight, without his comical skills would fail horribly. Honestly, not every chapter is funny or insightful; however, there are enough giggles and LOLs to make you want to read on. Overall, much of what you read will make you smile. At least I did.Read full review
I saw the man speak about his life and Irish Catholic ancestory. He was very humorous in a wry and vulgar sort of way. He seemed to hit the importance of life and the basic idea that we're so much more the same than different. I happened to discuss him with my 30 year old daughter. She too was terribly impressed with his reflections on life.
Dr. Denis Leary puts together a owner's manual of the male brain that no female should be without. Women of the world, don't bang your head against the wall when it comes to dealing with your men, read this book, so the next time he scratches his butt in your presence, or picks something out of his ear, smells it, and then wipes it on his shirt, you'll be able to say...'Ahh, Dr, Leary spoke of this very action taken by the male being...'
A very good friend recommended this book. I found it very honest and funny. Not for the faint of heart or those who do not know Denis Leary's style. He is brutally honest in this book and it is oh so true.
