Insightful and Informative: I thoroughly enjoyed Misinformation. I've had the pleasure of seeing Joyce perform live many times, and his skill as a comedian promised this to be an entertaining read. What struck me, however, was the level of insight and information underneath the issues he exposed. This is not some guy running his mouth off -- this is a study. This is a work that has come from years of astute observations, intense research, and personal experience. That being said, Joyce's style is blunt and aggressive. This book is real. He doesn't sugarcoat things, and he doesn't shy away from his points for fear of offending. He tells it like he sees it, and for that I respect his honesty and courage. This book is a breath of fresh air in an age that is so hyper-sensitive to political correctness. If you put this book down because a word or phrase offends you, in the long run you're really denying yourself-- he just has too many excellent points. Although Misinformation looks a bit intimidating, the effort is well worth it. You will see it's underlying themes every day of your life. Instead of chuckling at the overweight woman wearing the T-shirt that says, "Too pretty to work," you will shake your head at the much larger societal problem she represents. Thanks, Darrell-- can't wait to read volume two!
Some Truth: MisInformation hits home in many ways. In reading the chapters (which are cleverly titled), I found myself wincing at some of the remarks, not because they are hard hitting and direct, but rather they are true in some regards. I think the key point made in this book is that it is not directed to all...let me stress all women, but those times I found the dialog assaulting were when I seen myself doing or saying those exact things mentioned. I think it is a good tool for men in respect to finding out why women think there are no "good" men left, but it turned out to be an eye opener for me as a woman. I can't wait to read volume 2.
Girls read the book: This book is for men and women Darrell did not leave anyone that is dating ,married , or thinking about having any kind of relationship out. Ladys you may have to read a little bit at a time but when you calm down you will want to read more. Darrell is hard on us woman but if nothing else read the parts that relate to you or someone you know and i promise that you will read the whole book.
Awesome Book: This book is a must for both men and women. (It might be for gay people too if you are into that sort of thing because they want to be "married" these days.)Darrell examines both sides of the realtionship from experiences and observations. I read this book cover to cover and will read it again because its funnnier than hell, just like his stage act! I can't wait for the second book! Steve H. Ohio
An Enlightening Read - Funny and Poignant: Darrell tackles the issues I wish others would be brave enough to address. As one of those "hard to find" males, I appreciated his honesty, directness and thoughts. We create our own reality and then blame others for the way things turn out, particularly in our relationships and how we are viewed by others in society. I laughed as much as I cried when reading this book. Darrell is a real truth-teller. After I finished reading it I gave my copy to my wife's single friends to read. Cheer up ladies and have faith. . . there are still a lot of great men out there. You just need to know how to find them with the right bait. Darrell's book is your tackle box for finding one of us! Can't wait for Volume II!
