  <default_description>Recently single, Danny Wallace was falling into loneliness and isolation. When a stranger on a bus advises, &quot;Say yes more,&quot; Wallace vows to say yes to every offer, invitation, challenge, and chance.

In &lt;i&gt;Yes Man&lt;/i&gt;, Wallace recounts his months-long commitment to complete openness with profound insight and humbling honesty. Saying yes takes Wallace into a new plane of existence: a place where money comes as easily as it goes, nodding a lot can lead to a long weekend overseas with new friends, and romance isn't as complicated as it seems. Yes eventually leads to the biggest question of all: &quot;Do you, Danny Wallace, take this woman . . .&quot;

&lt;i&gt;Yes Man&lt;/i&gt; is inspiring proof that a little willingness can take anyone to the most wonderful of places.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I don't know about the movie, I don't know if I'm going to see the movie, but the book Yes Man by Danny Wallace is absolutely brilliant. I started reading it last week at Borders, then had to buy it because I couldn't stop thinking about it. Wallace has a really engaging writing style and his advent...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/40567025">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Written by the british Danny Wallace as a sort of diary- but comes across as a fiction book. Danny comes to a point where he has no life, says no to going out with friends- then one day the subway is stopped and he happens to take the bus home. He is joined by a man and they get to talking about lif...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/51170583">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I loved the fact that this book wasn't only great for a laugh but had a more meaningful message running in parallel with all the crazy things the protagonist gets up to. I came away from it with this feel-good attitude and a stronger connection with phrases like &quot;carpe diem&quot; and &quot;oppo...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/71862675">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book is brilliant. It isn't the usual type of book that I go for, but with the film coming out and I had a book voucher to spend, I thought why not, and I am so glad I did. I don't want to give too much away, but one area of the book that I did like was each opening chapter had a photograph in ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/46720924">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This book is HILARIOUS! I started reading it thinking it was fiction, but then realized it wasn't.  This guy REALLY did this stuff.  I was laughing so hard at points that I was almost hysterical.  The beginning seems a little far fetched, but once I realized it was real, it made it even more funny. ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/40980831">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I think that the title caught my eye when I picked this up in an airport bookstore. But it was a really funny read!  This guy basically says yes to everything that comes along to him for a year.  And then he writes about all the things he does.
