This is a hilarious guide book full of rules you should follow in your life. I don't know why it took me so long to read this one, but I'm so glad I finally got around to it.
I really loved it and I definitely recommend reading it.
Thank you to the publisher for providing me with a copy of this E-book to review via Netgalley.
This is one of those very light and fun books. It turned out to be much better than I expected. Although I'm not the kind of reader who reads so many comedy books, when I read the synopsis of this book, a slight curiosity automatically arose.
In a simple and brief way, the author gives us simple and basic rules of how to survive. They turn out to be simple tips, that kind of guide that most rules we already know.
Without a doubt, an ideal reading for those who are looking to unwind a little or even have a good laugh.
A funny book for "rules of life.'
Covering everything from cell phone usage to passing gas.
It's a comical take on every situation you could possibly imagine.
We need humor in the year of 2020, and this is a good place to start.
You can pick up the book and start from anywhere.
Thanks to NetGalley and the Publisher for allowing me to read this ARC.
I love life! I also love a good laugh and if there’s anything I’ve enjoyed reading this past month, it’s got to be Kitty Flanagan’s 488 Rules for Life, because even though Jordan Peterson sampled only 12, Kitty just like me, knew that there’s gotta be more than 12, because seriously…life is so diverse!
My absolute favorite rule: no. 431: If you borrow a book, return it promptly.
This is a fun book to read and she breaks down these simple life rules according to events, situations and places- and you can’t help but laugh at how true most of them are.
I’d definitely give this a 5-star rating.
If you like order and rules, and you have at least some sense of humour, you'll definitely like 488 Rules for Life.
The rules are quite relatable, unless you like listening to people talking loudly in the cinema, in which case....what's wrong with you? All of the rules are delivered in a smart and fun way and give you even better arguments for the next time you have to ask someone to tone down their bad behaviour.
I found myself agreeing with a lot of the rules, some were weird, but it has to do with the author being from Australia - I don't even know what Vegemite is at all. But I do use my right to rule 1, so it's all good.
All in all, a very entertaining book.
*Thanks to NetGalley and Arcturus Publishing for providing me with an ARC of this title in exchange for an honest review.*
Reading an Arc copy 488 Rules for Life was everything most people don’t want to say or are too scared too!
It’s bloody brilliant and brutal I was laughing so much I had to screen shot some and send to my family, work colleagues, friends just so I could share with laughter with them.
I enjoyed how it was each section how it’s covered just about everything.
Most I would think most should be done in politeness and common sense but clearly people need to be told some about life skills.
I will read this again just to laugh at new rules and would buy this as a gift for others.
I like the bit at the end so you can add your own life rules.
