More BE Reviews

these, from some small online sources:

first, culled from a bay area website:


"Talk about love's complications. David Israel does, and with considerable aplomb, in "Behind Everyman: A Novel for Guys and the Women Who Rescue Them." He writes as though he's outlining your life, in the "you" of second person. It works and you'll be hooked."

and now, an excerpt from my very first "scathing" review, reprinted from a boston area website:

"The premise is so lacking in originality, the reader needn't read more than half of the book to guess the outcome. In summary, a guy meets and falls in love with a girl, they break up, he realizes at the last possible minute that he has to get back together with her (you can almost see the movie poster now with Ashton Kutcher hugging Drew Barrymore from behind..."

my response to that:

from their website to god's ears! ashton kutcher and drew barrymore???? cha-ching!!!
