I bought this book and it really is a “must-own” for all single guys. It’s full of great ideas, from travel to sports to parties. But the best parts are the personal stories of real guys who have done hilarious things on the list. I want to meet those guys. . . buy it now and start checking off your own list.

And that’s a high honor. Picked it up the other day. Full of great Ideas. From places to travel to festivals to my favorite (and I am going to organize this) the Big Wheel Pub Crawl. Awesome stuff. Definitely gave me some things to try and accomplish. . . like 499 of them.

Seriously ignore that poster with the one star. My friends and I all love this book. It has tons of great adventures like kayaking in Costa Rica, traveling through Russia, sporting events, shark diving, road trips, Jobs Before Your Real Job, pub crawls, golfing in Scotland, Oktoberfest, fishing trips and on and on. It makes you realize how much fun is out there to be had. If you enjoy life and having good times, Die Happy is a must.

This book is definitely not for everyone, specifically if you’re a woman or anyone who’s grown out of partying. I say this because the two major themes of the book are heavy drinking and picking up girls. That being said, I would HIGHLY recommend this for any single guys about to graduate college or in their twenties.

The authors cover everything from huge beach parties in Thailand to Oktoberfest in Germany to hiking in South America. There’s a lot on things to do in the US, too. Their travel ideas are all very interesting and are all achievable. The tips and info that they provide on the different events and travel recommendations are actually really useful. The humor is also pretty good in this book. It’s a bit over the top at times, however, it made it fun to read.

I had been looking for a book like this forever. I basically wanted a young, single guy’s guide to traveling and partying all over the world, and this is it. This is really the only book out there that fits what I was looking for. If you’re in any way interested in exciting travel or doing something interesting with your life (and you’re a single guy aged 18-35), this is what you are looking for and you should absolutely buy this book. You won’t regret it.

Very funny book. Full of great ideas and ways to live life to its fullest. My favorite quote so far is from the Running of the Bulls: “Don’t be afraid to tell (the ladies) how you are the #1 bull fighter in the state of Rhode Island. ” Great stuff. . . should be given to every guy on his 18th birthday.
