To read the book, you need to know the "How I Met Your Mother" television series. Everybody knew that Barney quoted articles from the Bro Code, without knowing it really existed. The Bro Code is constituted of 150 articles of pure bro-ness. After reading it, you understand why and how Barney Stinson is actually thinking that differently from a common human being. While reading the book, you can't say that it isn't signed Barney Stinson! It is simply a perfectly representative book of the Stinson lifestyle. The book is great and it fit very well with the character of Barney Stinson. It is written as if it was a legal text book, with the articles, the amendments that completes each articles by giving specification or situation of exception and you kind of want to follow the Bro Code. It is well written, it is funny and it is completely Barney Stinson. The book is, without a doubt, legen-wait for it-dary and awesome.

Everything you've ever wanted to know about being a "bro". The legend - wait for it - dary book was out of this world awesome! I absolutely adore the TV show "How I Met Your Mother" and this book, which has been mentioned more than once was, was everything I had hoped for.

I feel as though I am now fully equipped to handle being a wing-woman and can easily spot a true bro and a faux bro.

For those of you that are fans of the show or Neil Patrick Harris I cannot state enough that you MUST read this and also get the audio book.

Brotastical, broticulate, and most of all brosome

Legand.... wait for it.... DARY

This book is filled with promotions of irresponsible sex, insulting stereotypes, and immature behavior but that is what Neil Patrick Harris' character Barney Stinson is all about.
The humor will be lost on anyone who doesn't watch How I Met Your Mother. However if you're a fan of the show, you'll likely hear Neil Patrick Harris' voice in your head as you read the book cover-to-cover. Not only does Barney supply readers with ample material to laugh at and enjoy, he also rewards loyal fans with references to things that have occurred throughout the series' colorful seasons.

The Bro Code can be looked at from two angles, the Bro's perspective, and those who attempt at being a Bro but fail miserably. This book is simply a humorous take on the philosophy that is Barney Stinson (portrayed by the well known NPH, and for those not in with the Bro you shall know him as Neil Patrick Harris, in the TV show How I Met Your Mother). While I may not speak of the contents within the book due to risk of betraying article four, I can let you know that this book is made up of a series of laugh worthy passages that will leave readers begging for more and often bringing up quotes to fellow Bros. To anyone that is a fan of the TV series... this is a must read, and to anyone else, who is male due to article four, this is not only a Bro Code, but it is a way of life.

Read it and enjoy!
