"Man Mission" by Eytan Uliel is a novel that combines adventure, humor, and introspection. The story follows four friends over a span of fifteen years as they embark on annual adventure trips around the world, including activities like cycling in New Zealand, kayaking in Japan, and hiking in Patagonia. These trips, dubbed "Man Missions," become a ritual for the men, serving as a means of escape, bonding, and self-discovery.

Through their experiences, the novel explores themes of friendship, masculinity, and the challenges of modern life, offering a mix of thrilling escapades and reflective moments. The book also talks about the personal lives of the characters, highlighting their struggles with careers, relationships, and the quest for meaning. "Man Mission" is both a travel memoir and a contemplation on the complexities of manhood, presenting a story that is both entertaining and thought-provoking.

Bonding is a very important aspect of life. It is beautiful to have people that you bond with. That was the biggest lesson I learned from reading this book. The bonds that we form last a lifetime. We can always fall back on those memories to keep us going. I loved that these men were open enough to bond with themselves.

In society today, men who bond and want to express themselves are seen as weak men. I encourage men to come out and talk about their feelings more. I also encourage them to be vulnerable around people that they trust. I applaud the author for using this in a beautiful way to write about it in this book.

Other than the slow pace at the beginning of the book, I found nothing to dislike about the book. It was well edited, as I found no errors. I rate this book five out of five stars. I recommend it to people who are struggling in life. A community might just be what they need.
