After enjoying his most recent release I decided to read another of Sylvester's books. This one, similar to the other, is filled with insightful commentary on dating, love, self-love and understanding. Some of it reads like common sense, some of it reads like a reality check, and some of it reads like a book that requires further editing (pardon the tough love, Sylvester). I have a hunch that I'll be pulling this one out if I ever run into trouble navigating the poles between taking care of my lover and taking care of myself.

I am still very new at dating and while this book, talks a lot about relationship and commitment I found it very insightful in the dating scenes as well. I respect Sylvester’s honestly and bluntness and his statement in the begging that us readers do not have to blindly accept everything he states but rather observe. I found the idea of couples being equal refreshing for a lot of dating and relationship books state that the man should be in power or at least think he should be in power. Although I disagreed with some of his points such as couples should change for each other. Sylvester’s message of love was prominent throughout the book and very empowering, brings me much hope for the future of this world. Overall I would highly recommend this book for anyone either in a committed relationship, going through heartbreak or just entering the dating scene but follow his words of observing the text rather than blindly following.

Started with much promise and deteriorated. The author begins to take the reader on a journey of awareness and understand but loses his way. While there indeed are nuggets of information, there didn’t need to be 400 pages. McNutt’s style is much better for social media, where there are sprints of high quality content, not so much for the marathon world of books. The book is also riddled with spelling errors that really takes away credibility. Still gave it 3 stars because he does speak truths.

Final word: There is a particular audience this book is good for. It wasn’t a great fit for me. Skim through it. Perhaps it’s for you and worth a deeper dive.

I love Sylvester's writing ever since I discovered his motivational posts on Instagram. This book came at an opportune time in my life, and made me realize a lot of things about myself...mostly what I was doing wrong 😂

However, I feel like I must deduct some stars for some reasons:

1. No citations, his writing is based solely on his experiences, interactions and interviews with his readers, acquaintances, etc. Even though he claims it's based on "years of research". Research, to me, is scientific and academic and requires citations.

2. A lot of typos, missing words, redundant paragraphs or entries, etc. Could do with a decent copywriter or editor. But i did get the gist of it all.

3. This is not a book for everyone, even the author gives this disclaimer on the introduction

It was certainly relevant for me, though, and as Sylvester would have it, I don't have to follow everything he's written. But the book gives a lot of food for thought and I appreciate the no holds barred male perspective.

A small nitpick 👇

Felt like the ending was rushed though. The Dear King chapter was meant for women to learn about what men want but what I got from it was...whether a guy wants to commit to a woman is solely HIS discretion so we'll just have to live with it? Okay, thank you 😂. Another thing, the Dear King chapter was meant to be speaking to a female audience yet he still inserts some stuff there that speaks to a male audience, so...not really a strong way to end the book.
