Let's face it, you're going to lie. Now, for the first time, there's a book to help you get good at it. (If you're saying you're going to STOP lying, then you're just lying to yourself.) This hilarious manual takes you through: --The five laws of lying well (Law #1: Don't feel bad about lying, feel bad about the bad things you do that you have to lie about) --Preparing your conscience in advance --The ABCDE's of lying --The importance of knowing when to lie (even more important than knowing HOW to lie) --How to know when someone is lying to you --And much more... The Shameless Liar's Guide is the first in a series of Anti-Self-Help books, dedicated to helping readers get in touch with their inner inadequacies and to accept, feel good about and laugh at their inherent human flaws.
Someone gave me this book, and damn it's funny. Not only that, I actually learned a lot from it... But don't tell my wife. I bought a couple copies for gag gifts, and they were big hits.
Fabulous from start to finish!

After reading just the introduction, I had a list of 6 people that are going to need this book for Christmas or their Birthday. You will laugh as you read and if you are like me, people you know will come to mind as you go through the examples, which makes it that much funnier. I definitely recommend this book to anyone and everyone--and hey, you just might pick up a new tip or two to make you that much better a liar yourself.

Funny and insightful - but also possesses the sting of a knife dipped in the acrid poison of your own self talk. If you want to be entertained, a superstar liar or able to id one - put it in your own stocking. Or get it for all those dear slanderous, distorting, etc. friends and lovers who really could use this book to master the craft. Better that than insult you with half formed, feeble, and fallacious stories! Loved when to tell the truth: Baby, it's not you. It's me breaking up with you.
