Guys in Suits

I've read most of Van Whitfields books and I've loved each one I've read. He's funny, honest and has a really good writing style that makes it easy to read and makes it flow well. This book is hilarious. Simon is ready to settle down after getting sick of dating when he runs into one of his ex-girlfriends and decides to try and win her back again. His best friend Stuart is trying anything but to get married but he also finds an ex and starts up an old relationship again. I can't give away anything else because it's something you've got to read for yourself (you'll love it), but it's well written and really enjoyable. I love the 60-Day Relationship Rule For Guys in the front of the book. Very funny. This is a great book and you'll see how addictive his stories are. As I said, I have a lot of his books, but not all - I'm going to go and order some more because I've not been disappointed yet by anything of his I've read so far.

The Funny Man Does it again! If you liked his previous efforts, there's no way this one can miss. Looking at some of the reviews, it's clear that some readers just don't "get it". It's humor, man. It's supposed to be funny, give Van credit for pushing the envelope and making memorable characters. The story is unpredictable, the end satisfying. What more do you want?

I cannot for the life of me understand how anyone could read this book and not walk away with a good feeling. 1st, let's see all of Van's work for what it is. It's FICTION people! And it's comedy at that. Some of you people really need to get with it. It's like watching Martin and somehow comparing it to the West Wing; they're just not the same. Having said that, Guys in Suits continues Whitfield's string of upbeat, offbeat writing. The characters are well-developed and story flows nicely and it is funny. Unlike the dim bulb who thought the bathroom scene was "disgusting" I (and my reading group) thought it was HILARIOUS!! It was a classic mislead and for anyone able to think, they would have seen it for what it was. I am always amazed at the wide disparity of reviews for Van's work. Either people really hate it, or they really love it. Something tells me there's a real "snob appeal" to reviewing his books. Because it's comedy, it's easy to dis. But all of his work is popular, real writers who review him give him the highest marks and his work is just plain different. Van - don't let the haters slow your roll. Keep putting it down...keep heeping it real...and keep us laughing!

I TOO, AM HAVING A HARD TIME UNDERSTANDING HOW SOMEONE DIDN'T INJOY THIS BOOK. FIRST OF ALL, LETS LOOK AT THE BOOK FOR WHAT IT TRULY IS........FICTION/COMEDY. IT REALLY GETS UNDER MY SKIN WHEN SOMEONE WRITES A REVIEW ABOUT HOW DISAPPOINTED THEY ARE IN A BOOK, AS IF TO SAY THEY WERE HOPING TO GET SOME SORT OF NEW LEASE ON LIFE, STEMMING FROM WHAT'S READ BETWEEN THE PAGES OF THE LATEST BOOK.......HELLO!!!.....NEWS FLASH......IT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN.FOR MYSELF AND MANY, READING IS A RELAXING PASSTIME. SO, UNLESS A BOOK IS SOOOOO UNBELIEVABLE, IMPOSSIBLE OR JUST DOWN RIGHT REDICULOUS, IT IS A PLEASURE TO EXSCAPE PERSONAL REALITIES BY WAY OF CHARACTER EXPERIENCES. HINCE, THE WORD FICTION.MR. WHITFIELD, YOU STILL HAVE A FAN IN ME. I LOOK FOWARD TO YOUR NEXT BOOK WITH MUCH ANTICIPATION.

Who is the clown that read this and didn't like it? This is a funny, laugh out loud book, just like his first two. It's good to read about ordinary guys who tell it like it is. What I like about Van's work, is that it represents the mindset of me and regular guys like me. There are no supermen pretending to have all the answers or men who are God's gift to women. Whitfield's work has grown with each book and in this case, grows by the page. I asked a few friends about the 60 Day Rules for Men from the book and they all agreed - It's REAL, men tank after just 60 days in a relationship. The storyline with the two "at-risk" kids was not only funny, it was nice. And Simon and Stuart could have been any two of my friends. Women will learn from this book, men will learn from it and you will laugh. It is a good, quick read that will make you upset that it's over. I just want to know why he doesn't have a new book every year like all of the other good writers. What's the deal Van? Give us some new stuff next year!! What more can you ask for from a book? Keep on keeping it real Van!!
