There are many five star reviews of that book, but this is the review that really got my attention:
"Okay boys, as a woman having read this; I hate the whole idea here. Being honest isn't the same as being a great guy. It's IS The same as being 'the nice guy who never gets any'.
I think a 'nice guy' wrote this book.
Honesty? Yeah, we ladies LOVE that IF what you're being honest about is that you have a great personality, positive life goals, and a great, forward moving life to back it all up.
But we also value mystery, strength, passion, power, and yes, money. We are not gold-diggers. But we like to know you're a viable man in the real world, not someone who still needs mama's help to survive.
Sorry. But I feel like this books should be titled 'the unattractive, lazy, self-pitying guy's guide to being so nice that it guilts women in to being with him'."
Ok, never accept dating advice from a woman, but is Manson really advocating nice-guy game? That's a pretty damning charge from either sex.
