I Wish He Had Come With Instructions Book Review

27066856Title: I Wish He Had Come With Instructions

Author: Mike Bechtle

Genre: Nonfiction, Christian, Relationships, Marriage, Men, Humor,

Plot: The differences between men and women has fueled many books and movies, some to make fun of those differences and some to try to solve them. In that regard, this boo isn't any different than another relationship book, but it is unique in that it's by a man for women to learn how to appreciate those differences and live with them rather than a manual on ho to change the men in their lives.

With humor, Mr. Bechtle lays down a map to the man's brain and points out the unique differences and the areas that women can influence {habits} and the areas they can't change {genetics and how God wired the man}. If more women understand the differences, accept and appreciate them, more men will find themselves willing to change for their woman. And together, every couple can write their own instruction manual.

Likes/Dislikes: This book really is unique and fell in line with a lot of what my husband says about men, which was nice. And being reminded of the different ways I can appreciate my husband was a timely blessing. It never hurts to run little martial check-ups and remind your husband that he's the number one person in your life, no matter how rough or smooth things are going. But beyond that, this book wasn't anything new and it was excruciatingly repetitive. Copy and paste must've written half this book. Some of the stories were funny but the mind map wasn't a map at all and the chapter on red flags in relationships was completely useless.

Rating: PG-15 and up, mainly for content {its a marriage book}

Date Review Written: September 27th, 2016
