Comedy writers Boesel and Moore, two guys ready to take on the world, found out through a series of slaps in the face, so to speak, that they needed to readjust their expectations. Here they offer a guide to employment, domesticity, cuisine, style, and romance as cautionary advice on how life really works. Each section comprises three parts—"the perfect world," "get real," and "just do this." Guidance ranges from how to behave at office parties and online dating to getting a dog.
VERDICT While couched in humorous terms, the principles set forth are oh so true.
