Critic reviews

"The book is jam-packed with straight-talking tips on how to bag your man, and quite frankly, we can’t put it down." ( The Sun)

A must for anyone who dates or wants to!

I've listened to this book 4 times already! Common sense strategies to improve you're dating life & your chances of finding a great, long-term relationship. Also very entertaining/funny; written AND narrated by a stand-up comedian & his wife. One of the best books I've read in years!

Fucking Hilarious & Full if Truth

I’m an idiot when it comes to men and I’m so thankful for the nice slap across the face to wake me the fuck up! I love men and so want one to play with in life!

Now I know

What did you love best about It's Just a F***ing Date?

I have always been the type of woman who thought every date was just step one to the altar. Like many other women, I imagined the wedding, the happy marriage and growing old together all within the first 5 SECONDS of making eye contact with some hot dude. After listening to the book, I had to admit that I have never actually dated anyone. I am definitely looking forward to getting back in the game and the tips are invaluable as I begin weeding through the oceans of jerks; I will be able to recognize the keeper. I love the book so much that I bought a copy for my sister-friend and we have agreed to keep each other grounded when it comes to dating. We are both once in a lifetime women looking for our once in a lifetime man. And as I'm writing this review I have decided that this book will buy a copy for my nieces as their high school graduation gift....maybe sooner. GAME ON!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Greg and Amiira are HILARIOUS!!! Their stories are riddled with seeds of wisdom and truth! I listened to the book at least 4 times in its entirety and too many to count for a specific recaps and I still laugh, Greg is too much!!

Any additional comments?

BUY IT!!

Genius! Every single girl MUST read this book!

Would you consider the audio edition of It's Just a F***ing Date to be better than the print version?

Listening to Greg and Amira tell tales of dating and give advice in their own words makes it that much more poignant. And hilarious.

What other book might you compare It's Just a F***ing Date to and why?

Great follow-up to "He's Just Not That Into You." Takes dating back to how it is supposed to be - a long, slow, fun way to meet and try out new people and relationships.

Have you listened to any of Greg Behrendt and Amiira Ruotola ’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

I'm downloading all of their other books immediately. So much fun to listen to these on my commute (while taking copious notes).

What’s an idea from the book that you will remember?

Remembering to let go of all the worry and trepidation of dating and realize "it's just a f*cking date" takes so much stress off a girl's plate.

Any additional comments?

This book is chock-full of awesome advice for any single girl. They cover a whole myriad of ways on how you're getting in your own way when it comes to dating.

It is blunt and straight forward

Where does It's Just a F***ing Date rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I enjoyed the fact that you get both a man's and woman's point of view through out the book. I liked how blunt and straight forward they are. They could have done it with out the cursing, but the cursing made it real. Sometimes the best way to explain something is with the 'F' word. They covered all of the layers of dating.

Any additional comments?

This book is written primarily for the woman, with enough variety I am glad I listened to it. However, the next one of their books I listen to... I will make sure it is leaning more toward men.

I loved it

Fantastic common sense that I needed spelled out for my dating life! I love that the overall message is love and respect yourself, then the rest will sort itself out! Some great messages, whether you agree with all the principals or not, some wonderful insight into dating.

lots of fun!

... easy listen, good info and good laughs ☺. Takes dating way down to just fun.

Insightful and honest

Loves it super informative and changed my perception on dating cant wait to get out there.

eye opener and deep soul searching audio book

great audiobook on what we do wrong to screw up on dates and strategies to fix our dating flawa :)

What a lifesaver

Greg and Amira giving us the TEA! Again!

Just like He’s Just Not That Interested In You, this book is a no-nonsense approach to how to date. Not in a relationship coach kind of way like many I’ve read that talks about tactics and strategies to keep the man interested. This is based on real-world experience from Greg, Amira, and a host of other real stories they received from real men and women to illustrate certain points. Some stories made me literally gasp, some laugh, and others made me wince because I’ve definitely been there.

This book is witty, conversational, and feel like a kind but wise friend is giving me advice. So many goodies and things I can start implementing in my dating journey. Thank you guys so so much.

And yeah, it’s just a f—king date you guys!
