I have a group of a ladies who have been my friends for close to 20 years now. We met when we were teenagers and have since seen each other through thick and thin. We have had a few adventures together, moments that i cherish. This is a book i will read to have a glimpse on what the four friends experienced on their adventures. Great review!

This book portrays the adventures, (and the misadventures) man goes through in life. It also pinpoints the trials and sorrows he can expect. Through a sprinkle of suspense and a whole lot of action, Eytan Ulien, leaves us on the edges of our seats, waiting to see what might happen next!

Sounds like a good adventure to have with four mates while doing a spot of armchair travelling! The free sample I read didn’t exactly pull me in though - the narrative tone seemed a tad stilted and simplistic for me, and some of the attitudes the author held were overly macho (though I understand that perhaps that was meant to be tongue-in-cheek.) Thanks for your review!

This sounds like a male version of The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. I'm not sure how I feel about it... I'm not opposed but I have a long reading list ahead of this one. Thank you for your review.

A great review of what sounds like an entertaining book. So many people have plans for their lives but most of us get bogged down in reality and never achieve these goals. As the friends travel to different parts of the world, they achieve these goals and experience something different in life. This sounds very inspiring and creates an urge to not only travel, but to rekindle some of those long forgotten dreams, as well.

I am not generally a big fan of travel novels. I may not read this book but it sounds like many others enjoy it.

Sounds like a great book. I am interested in what happens when they go on a "Man Mission?" I like that the book enables readers to learn about places they might never have been. It's also great that the author provides alternate perspectives. Thanks for the great review!

Sounds like a great book. In addition to learning about many things in different countries, ladies get to see how men view certain aspects of life. So, I'm definitely interested in this book.

This sounds like the kind of book that makes you feel like you've visited the places described in the story. Enthralling, adventure filled and relatable is what came to mind as I read the sample and review. Reminded me of the movie hangover. A must read for me. Thank you for an entertaining and informative review.
