Your opinions on the book ''the game''

The Game is a semi-autobigraphical novel, it is not an instruction manual. It is a work of semi-fiction, in that most of the events occurred, but not necessarily when or in the way they were depicted in the book.

There is an instruction book by the same author called "The Rules of the Game." It's a series of lessons. Many people have given FRs on these lessons but nobody has gotten past Day 6.

It's a good book, not really one that teaches seduction techniques.

The Game is not an educational text, it is a story. If you want a book that will teach you a thing or two, I recommend Magic Bullets by Savoy of Lovesystems. It's a pretty airtight method.

As a writer myself, I loved it.

It may not have nearly the level of "instruction" that you might be looking for, but it is a very compelling story, and Strauss writes in a very effective style himself.

That said, while I always understood the concepts at work in seduction, this work really helped me learn how to implement them in my own interactions with women. Now, maybe that's just a matter of "right time, right place," correlation not being causation and all that, but his voice was the voice I needed to spur my development.

What I did was I stopped by a local bookstore and read the first chapter while there to check it out. I found it immediately caught my interest and resolved "I want to read this, even if it isn't a pick-up how to maual." Unfortunately, the bookstore charged a pretty outrageous price and I didn't really like the stigma of me walking out with this book (ridiculous notion, I know) so I looked it up on Amazon and bought it for considerably less than they were charging. You might consider doing the same.

My local library had it. Just read it in December, great read. inspirational and worth the buy for reference. don't lend it out or you won't get it back, or just check it out for free

It's basically an auto-biography with some relatively useful tips throughout.

I've learnt far more from this subreddit than the book. It has some tips, but nothing I haven't read here.

It's not as organised as The Mystery Method.
