Customer Reviews

Great Humorous Reading

I love this book! This book is just like so many guys and he doesn't apologize for it! He hams it up and makes it both fun and funny! I'm amazed to see several reviews that aren't great: I loved it and will read it again in a few months! I bought it full price and am glad for my investment! It's on loan to a friend at this moment!

The laughs just keep on comming

What can I say....Just as everything always is, "Just A Guy" by Bill Engvall was a great book. I bought it for my husband for his birthday and it was money well spent.

great book,

i recently bought this at a local book store, and i read it in two days. a nice short read, it tells alot about envall's life. colledge years, how he met his wife, etc. great for any fan, not so humorous, but i enjoyed it.

More than just Humor

For those who follow Bill Engvall or the Blue Comedy Tour, you will love this book! Not only is it filled with Bill's humorous look at being "a guy" but it also gives the reader an inside look into Bill's personal life as well.He recounts numerous stories from his youth,the college years, his start in comedy and his relationship with his family. A great read for all.

Very interesting, but not particularly humorous.

This book was very interesting, to say the least. Engvall wrote on his life in many subsections, making each to the point without having to add extra words to fill out a chapter. From his childhood antics, to his college antics, to his start as a comedian, to meeting his wife, this was a book that waqs hard to put down. However, very little actually made me laugh. This is more an autobiography than an attempt at humor. You shouldn't buy this book because you want humor; you buy this book because you want to know more about Engvall.
