I'll start by saying I love Janice Dickinson, I don't care what people think about her she is a women after my own heart. You have to admire someone who although most of her physically is fake but she has always stayed real with herself. She's blunt, vulgar, honest and get's to the point about things. Confidence is always a good thing to have. This book was pretty funny and it does remind women that they do control the way their love lifes are that they need to take control of every aspect. As s...more
This is Janice's third book. I have read all three she had written. I didn't need to read this 3rd installment but I did because I like crazy Janice & I wanted to hear her input about men & dating. I really enjoyed her first book (No Lifeguard) cause it was more about herself and what made her so crazy. The second book (I'm perfect) she talks about herself, cosmetic surgeries and the modeling business and this last book is about how to treat men. Basically we all know she loves men for s...more
If you're a fan of no-holds-barred, blunt honesty, then this book is for you... you'll enjoy a few laughs, relate to relationship pitfalls, cringe with jealousy, and learn some fabulous witty-and-wise words along the way. I highly recommend this book, and if you're a fan of Janice Dickinson (like I am) then a double win!
well janice dickinson is in true to self "me" mode talking about all the men she has bedded, and hooked up with and all the good and bad that came of all these "relationships". It's pretty self-centered and in your face what you would expect from janice herself. Not much real advice for everyday unrich women. Was ok
Although the book is said to give advice on dating for the single gal, Dickinson falls short of this promise. Filled with funny stories and notable moments, this book is much more entertaining then educational. It's an easy read that will shock you, as Janice always does!
includes dish about her date with polanski who apparently didn't talk all night and then was like, "now you have sex with me." Of course our heroine slammed the limo door in his face. so awesome.
Wasn't her best book or at least I did not like it as much as her first book. Perhaps because I am married and not looking to date!
about girls and there lifes it is very good i like it
Regardless of what people generally think of Janice, I believe this is a very good example for young women or anyone in the dating scene really. She explains how to keep control of your own life and not letting men trample you down. All positive in my eyes. I loved this book and the other books that Janice wrote.

This book was hilarious. Janice Dickinson gives dating tips to all the women currently doing just that. It is more for women who are insecure and do not know their place when they are on a date with men. For other women, it is a hysterical book about a woman who just had tons of experience with men.
This is the stupidest book I have ever encountered.Dont waste your time on this unless your a Supermodel who thinks shes better then everyone else. Also, another great use for this book would be to use it to start a fire. Its not even worthy of a star

This book is not really a guide to "dating, mating and extricating". Read it for entertainment purposes and to get the dirt on all the men that Janice has bedded. There's a lot of them!
Can't say it enough... I love this woman. The funny thing about this book is that it's about her views on dating... which I don't necessarily agree with but it is funny.
Oh Janice, oh you. I wonder what it is like in her head. I am kind of picturing a pinball machine. But regardless, she does have some good zingers. A nice beach read...
Silly and fluffy but with her classic flat out honesty, a fun bite of a book. Don't take the advice seriously though. :)
