From the Male Perspective

Where does Married Men rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

I really enjoyed this book, and the take on relationship, friendships, and family from the man's perspective. Carl Weber did a great job with creating very believable characters. This book definitely touched on real issues that effect our community. A great read over all.

Nice surprise.

I was wondering if I'd made a mistake in ordering this book about 4 black friends and their adventures in marriage and family, and sex. I was fascinated after a few chapters and have to wonder how accurate this is about their real life. It is basically a good soap opera, and I am glad I read/listened to it. Nicely completed at the end. I'm glad I got to spend the time with these guys.

Page Turner with out the pages!

This story was captivating throughout! I read the print version many years ago and was not disappointed with the audiobook. I truly just couldn’t put it down. Even though some of the plot was predictable, I still wanted to see it play out. Finished it in less than a week which is a feat for me! I will read again. Loved it.

wonderful

loved it. First time reading one of his books. I was very impressed with the book

great book

overall I loved this book. I liked all of the characters. Alan was my least favorite tho.

Thoroughly enjoyed it!

Kept my interest from the very beginning!! Finished in 2 days!!! Highly recommend! Was my 1st Carl Weber audio book however will not be my last!

Excitement and kept my complete attention

Great narrators and narration from all the characters. Well done and the story was pretty believable. This book will definitely be kept in rotation.

OK listen great narration overall story

The story made a few of the men so weak and the women do witchy. Yes with cause but this was a bit much. The overall premise of the story was good. I liked it enough to listen to the whole thing even though I stopped a few times. Pushed myself through a couple of chapters but at least I knew the outcome before the story actually ended.

Many Lessons Learned

This was an excellent book. My husband and I enjoyed listening to it and feel it is a great learning experience when dealing with relationships. The author delved into serious issues that many couples face. We think this book is very well written and keeps you in suspense waiting to hear the outcomes of the difficult situations the characters find themselves in. We are still discussing how the men continued to come to the aid of each other. But, we definitely believe they could have used better judgement when giving each other advice and how to stay out of trouble as married men.
