Thank you to Sourcebooks and Netgalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I love Kyle Prue's Tiktoks and I got unreasonably excited when I saw he had a book coming out. This book is a collection of Prue's most searing quips designed to leave men questioning their entire senses of being. The tagline of "BE NO MAN'S PEACE" is entirely apropos and also made this an absolute must-read for me. I don't usually read "advice" style books like this, but I found myself smiling and laughing along and screenshotting at least half of the pages to send to friends. High points include comparing the NHL draft to the Bachelor or telling a man with a beard, "you should grow a beard." Scathing. Personal. Beautiful. Bravo, Kyle.

What a great read.

This was genuinely so entertaining. I smiled and laughed throughout the whole thing. This whole book really made my day. An excellent read for anyone who is super over toxic men. LOL who isn’t.

My lifelong dream of pissing off men just got a whole lot easier!

This guide features more than 100 phrases, questions and comebacks to say to any toxic male you may encounter in your life.

I honestly couldn’t stop smiling while reading this, and it’s just such an easy, fun read. Even if you don’t intend to crush any men’s ego you should still read this just for the fun of it. Though I will definitely be testing some of them out the next time an opportunity arises!

I may have to buy a copy for myself so I can bring it with me wherever I go. I highly recommend you get this book for yourself when it comes out.

Big thanks to Netgalley, Sourcebooks and the author Kyle Prue for allowing me to read this amazing piece of literature.

Pros: I always love when Kyle Prue pops up on TikTok with his latest installment of how to piss off men. When I saw that he had written a book based on the same topic as his viral videos, I immediately wanted to read it. Just like his TikTok persona, his voice in this book is clever and nuanced, and he offers astute commentary on the patriarchy and toxic masculinity. This will be a fun book to gift to my friends who will absolutely want to put these sayings into use.

Cons: None--this was a delightful read.

Thank you to NetGalley and Sourcebooks for the opportunity to read this book.

Big thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for this arc!! This was so fun and quick to read. I loved this comedic approach to serious topics. I don't know if I'm ever going to use the phrases this book recommends but I had so much fun reading this and I giggled my way through thinking about situations were I definetly could have used some of them!!

some of my favorites
"I love your cosplay"
"You have the confidence of a much taller man"
"calling all (men's) sports exactly that, not just sports"
"Do you have a humiliation fetish?"

I really enjoyed this!! I also really like the authors TikTok content!!

If you love Kyle Prie on Tiktok you will love this. Definitely recognized a bit of content from there, but I totally expected that. He is hilarious, this book is hilarious, and you should read it. Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an e-arc in exchange for an honest review.

This book is hilarious with a great message. I laughed a lot during this read, seeing how some of those insults can really hit some men and make them think...

Full of helpful tips and tricks for the special man in your life <3 Peppered with a surprising amount of self-aware commentary on why it works and how to execute correctly

I loved this! This was a quick, fun and easy read that had me cackling. It didn’t take me long to read too. Very entertaining.

As someone who delights in Kyle Prue's TikToks, I found this book to be a natural extension of his hilarious take on toxic masculinity. My best friend, who's back navigating the world of online dating, often shares her misadventures with me, and Prue has become a go-to for quick laughs and light-hearted revenge tactics.

I loved this! Such a quick and easy read - it took me less than an hour and I was laughing the entire time. Honestly, some of these made my jaw drop - such simple comments can be absolutely DEVASTATING. I would recommend it to anyone looking for something fun. It’s obviously geared towards women, but I would also recommend it to men who are trying to unlearn toxic behaviors.

thanks to NetGalley for the eARC

summary: what it says on the tin.

thoughts: a clever, practical guide to dealing with the men forced upon us all. I’ve been following Kyle on TikTok et cetera for quite some time, so I was super excited to see this. this is hilarious—pure wit for all one hundred-whatever pages—and there’s a very meaningful “what do we learn from this” bit at the end. love it.

How to Piss Off Men is a collection of tongue-in-cheek "advice" for women dealing with insufferable men, based on Kyle Prue's recurring Tiktok series of the same name. I've followed Prue for a while, so many of the suggestions were familiar to me—I felt like I'd heard most of this book before. Even so, I enjoy Prue's wry wit that satirizes the fragility of the male ego, because sometimes we just have to laugh at patriarchy, or else it will become to grim and overwhelming.

This book will appeal to Prue's following and people who are doing their best to make it through the day under patriarchy.

What a fun and easy read! I finished this in about 30 minutes and was laughing the whole time. A man’s perspective was so enlightening and refreshing. Will definitely be recommending to all my girlfriends!

Absolutely loved this and cannot wait to use some of these lines myself! I had low hopes going in but am so glad I picked it up! 5/5 will recommend to so many women.

Thank you to Netgalley and the author for providing me an e-arc of this book.

Ps: I finished this book within hours of approval. It's quick, it's clever, what's not to love?

The fact that the author opens his guide telling women what to say to men with the acknowledgement that "as a cis white man, there are things I can feel comfortable saying and doing that women can't" is a sign that he KNOWS he shouldn't be writing this book. He just wants to profit off what he thinks are witty one-liners, knowing that women would get hit if they said these things, many of which just make the woman sound as dumb as the man thinks she is.

Kyle Prue is everything and I enjoyed every second of this book. It was a quick read and I would guess not many people would fully get the humor if they don’t follow Kyle but it’s a perfect book for those that do follow him. I’ll definitely be buying this to add to my man hater book collection.

I’ve loved Kyle Prue’s “How To Piss Off Men” series from its beginnings on TikTok and I was excited to receive an ARC after learning he was publishing a book! The majority of the book is a barb with no more than two pages of explanation. Some are repeated from videos, but that didn’t bother me. The format makes it a great fast read and a good coffee table book.

I particularly enjoyed the final section, in which the author lays out *why* to piss of men. It’s a good reason, and laid out with humor and heart.

Highly recommend!

Perfection. I wish I had this book in my back pocket at all times when I was in my twenties. I will try my hardest to remember that with great power comes great responsibility and not over use these.

This book was great. I wish I could keep it in my purses and arrange it by sections and situations in order to have these comebacks and insults readily available! I appreciate that Kyle recognizes all the stupid, insensitive, insulting, and ridiculous things that men say to women and then wonder what happened?! This book should be standard issue by the time girls start developing!
