How to Piss Off Men by Kyle Prue
3.0
Thank you Sourcebooks for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
I was excited to read this book because I had seen Kyle Prue on TikTok and found his content and the series of videos this book is based on funny. Unfortunately the book fell flat for me. There didn't seem to be anything that made the book unique from his videos. It all felt regurgitated and very simplistic.
Kyle is a cis white man with a predominantly female audience and while he does acknowledge the privilege he has, there were times where it felt like he was talking down to the reader and it just comes off as condescending.
Basically, this is a book that goes on the displays near the Barnes & N0ble checkout line that you flip through while waiting to pay. You chuckle at a few pages and then put it back down when it's your turn.
