Description
You Know its Impossible but you try Anyway! A brilliant, side-splitting fictional parody of the self-help genre that will have women roaring with laughter from AmericaâÃÂÃÂs newest comic genius.
Bruce Cameron thought he was fine the way he was âÃÂàbeing divorced and single was just a setback. Then the women in his life came up with a list of 178 things that needed improvement. (Bruce came up with 4, including âÃÂÃÂneed a new sports carâÃÂÃÂ.) So begins a personal odyssey to change himself for the better.
Along the way, Bruce discovers the horrors of feng shui, gets a dance lesson from his daughters (âÃÂÃÂthrough most of history, women who moved like this were burnt as witchesâÃÂÃÂ) and becomes his cousinâÃÂÃÂs birthing partner.
ThereâÃÂÃÂs a laugh on nearly every line and women will find some scenes very familiar âÃÂàsuch as the ingenious tactics to avoid washing up, the one-upmanship of having a bigger and better gadget than your next-door neighbour, strange behaviour of the male species around a BBQ or the pile of dirty socks dumped just in front of âÃÂàrather than inside âÃÂàthe laundry basket.
So does Bruce âÃÂàthe Changed Man âÃÂàfind lovef YouâÃÂÃÂll have to wait and find out! Reviews
