Clever Women Catch the Big Ones
Love is life's most important value. The "Men Are Like Fish" tells you how to make love really work. It illustrates the essence of finding, attracting, getting, keeping, and enjoying a romance.
The book is based on the American proverb "a man chases a woman until she caches him", and tells what every woman needs to know about catching a man. The Steve Nakamoto's "Men Are Like Fish" offers a fresh angle on how women can capture the love of their dreams by understanding the true nature of men. That's not only fun and easy to read, but also packed with helpful pointers, universal truths, and unique insights.
Most of the world is covered by water. A fisher(wo)man's job is simple: pick out the best parts.
Utterly Delightful!
Whether you are going fishing for fish or men or something else, i.e. a warm smile deep inside, you may well want to start with Steve's book. It's filled with lots of quips and quotes and insight that can and should be applied to all realtionships, including that most important one, the relationship one has with self. It's bound to make you smile and think a little about yourself. After reading the book you may want to take the time to run a comb through your hair and change your clothes before you dash away to the store for that bottle of mineral water or whatever you forgot to pick up yesterday when you were out in your sweats! If you want a pleasant read . . . cast your line and catch "Men are Like Fish"! You will be pleased you did. Steve Nakamoto is a very uniquely talented and creative author!
Fish are Fish - Men Aren't
This book's recent second edition (I didn't read the first) is amazingly trite. I get the impression that Nakamoto had a tiny kernel of an idea and decided, somewhat unsuccessfully, to expand it into a "self-help" advice book. I did, however, enjoy seeing how many clichés (often conflicting the sense of previously-cited ones) he could pack into his work. The title's metaphor makes one wonder why, if a man were truly a like a fish, a woman would want to land one: if a woman actually caught a fish, she certainly wouldn't plan to marry it, she'd be more likely pan-fry it. But perhaps the author unwittingly expresses my opinion best when he says, apparently without being aware of the pertinence to his own work, "[a] smart woman should always be on guard against bad relationship advice, especially from men." To which I can only add, amen!
