Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Men Are Great
Karen Jones · 2007
60/100
👎 Skip It
A counter-cultural self-help with a constructive message and grounding in expert interviews rather than pure anecdote, which gives it more credibility than most in the relationship-advice aisle. The practical tips are specific, but small-press production, modest scope, and an almost invisible critical footprint keep it from earning a confident recommendation.
