Hold On To Your N.U.T.s® Book Reviews

Looks Funny. Works Great!
“I found Wayne’s book browsing a bookstore looking for “help” with my wife and family. I picked it up because it looked funny, and I felt like I could use a laugh at the moment. What I found was a new, unique approach to improving your relationships by improving yourself. I have been working with my N.U.T.S. and applying the BetterMen Tools for a week now, and have definitely noticed things improving around the house and with my relationship with my wife. Thanks Wayne.” -Mark


A No-B.S. Guide for Men
“Wayne understands the fact that men who need help need to be spoken to like men. That means he dispenses with anything remotely New Age-sounding or bizarre and gets right to it with straight talk, solid examples and real-life anecdotes that make sense. Levine guides men through an understanding of how they likely got to where they are (angry, sad, confused, etc.) and helps them look in the mirror for practical solutions within themselves. It's powerful stuff packed into a book that's quick and easy to read and formatted so you can go back again and again for reference.” -Alex


Big Help for Men; Godsend for Women
“This book is not intended for women, and doesn't pretend to be. But boy, will we benefit. I bought it for my husband in a "leave-it-on-the-bedside-table-with-a-few-key-sections-conveniently-marked" kind of way . . . Of course I had to read it myself first (the title intrigued me), and what impressed me the most was how much this book was written FOR MEN, really. My husband laughed at the title and opened it right up. And he read it. Pretty quickly. There wasn't a bunch of psycho-babble or touchy-feely "delve into your past" exercises. Just straightforward advice and day-to-day tips. The book talks about fathering too, which I appreciate with our two young boys. N.U.T.s is full of clear examples and simple tools for men interested in improving their relationships. As a wife, it's a valuable resource, and I'm grateful for it.” -Dana


Invest in Youself
“If you're looking for concrete and sound advice on how to shed the 'little boy' in you and start living like a man, you need to read this book. It's a book that you can quickly read in one setting, and also keep referring to whenever you need encouragement and direction. I highly recommend it to any man who wants to improve himself as well as his relationships with others.” -Darren


Great! Buy It Now!
“Don't wait! I found this book by chance in a local bookstore. I've begun to grow up a lot since reading it. It's been very helpful in clarifying a lot of issues about myself and my relationships, and understanding what I want and how to get it. It's all about standing up and being the man I want to be. Wayne's book has got me on that road. Unlike so many other self-help books, N.U.T.s is focused on what men need and how to bring it into action. Onward to being the man, husband, father and son I want to be!” -Will


N.U.T.s and Guts
“Wayne's book captures the essence of his mentoring program. I was fortunate to learn of and use his services and they helped to turn my life around. I came to terms with the reality that I was in a toxic marriage that I needed to leave. Once I left that marriage, the principals within the book has helped me to deal with dating, and eventually I found a wonderful woman to be in a new marriage with. By holding onto my N.U.T.s, I am having a great relationship with my new wife. I appreciate greatly what Wayne has done for me and other men.” -Dave


An Honest Book That Means Well...And Does Better
“Wayne Levine has hit the nail on the head...with a rising divorce rate and lower marriage rate, people NEED help with their relationships. And lets be honest...it's not the women who are going to step up and do what needs to be done in order to save a relationship. Like many other things in life, from changing a tire to teaching a kid how to throw a baseball...its the man's job. And Levine just goes right out there and says that, and in every way, from the title, to the introduction, to his "BetterMen Tools." Each one seems simple...until you try and put it into action. Then you realize how important it is to really understand them, and how much they can do if you put effort into them. In short, Levine knows what it takes to have happy, healthy, and long-lasting relationships, and it seems that he's made it his mission to share that wisdom. I recommend to all this cheeky but immensely helpful relationship manual!” -Sam


Tight and Right!
“Got this book a couple of days ago and I'm really digging it! It's really on point with everything I've seen so far ... strong, straightforward, sensible, and very pragmatic. Great insights, great reminders, great tools, and probably the best book I've seen for men in the last 20 years. Very accessible and highly recommended for any man bugged by that nagging feeling that he's settling for less from himself than he wants and deserves.” -Rick


The Real Deal!
“This book and the work in it have literally saved my marriage. Two years ago when I was exposed to it, I was near divorce and pretty depressed about it. Today, not only I am nowhere near divorce, but I have also taken my life back. Family is #1 and it is much easier to get out of bed in the morning! Wayne has an amazing way of using empathic understanding to cut through all of the bull and get right down to the issues that all men face: fear, control, etc. I am becoming the man I want to be as a result of the work and the book! Do yourself a favor and give it a read.” -Vince


Simple and Effective
“Wayne Levine’s book is full of very important—and surprisingly simple—ideas. They are the sorts of things you wish you would have been told by your dad 30 years ago. It's hard to put into words how powerful the information can be and how profoundly it can affect your life. Check it out for yourself.” -Staz


Men's Bible
“I recently bought a copy of the book for a close friend who is on the board of The ManKind Project in Denver, CO. He read it and said that his group has been working toward the same ends as Wayne Levine since 1985, but that Wayne's book was a Bible to men who wanted to know how to do men's work. He called it a simple how-to manual for men, and I cannot for the life of me say it better than he did! You owe it to yourself to use this book daily to be who you want to be.” -Frank


Great Book
“This is a very special book and I highly recommend it to all men who are looking for practical advice on how to improve the relationships in their lives. It helps you define for yourself what it means to be a man and offers guidance on becoming the man that you have always wanted to be. I read it about a year ago and still draw from it frequently. Wayne Levine has a unique and refreshing voice and he articulates his ideas in a very accessible way. Definitely worth your time.” -Mike


Great Reference Guide
“This manual for men is long overdue. It finally tells you what you should and shouldn't do. Lets face it, men are great at doing what you have been told to do, but not great at "winging it" in their relationships. Levine gives it to you straight, and if you ever get the opportunity to talk to Wayne, it will be the same way. This book is not only meant to be read, but also referred to daily. You can leave it in the bathroom; pick it up and read a chapter every day. The most important thing in this book is the N.U.T.S and continuous growing. Don't be afraid to get men involved in your life. You are not the only man who feels the way you do. Great work Wayne!!!” -Chris


Very Helpful Book
“The book does something that other books I have read don't—it helps you have better relationships with your wife and your children without sacrificing what is important to you. The lessons are things that I could really do, not just things that sound good on paper.” -George


Finally a Book with Actual Do's and Don'ts for Men!
“This book is an easy read and has a straight-forward approach. You can actually follow the author's step-by-step advice on how to deal with women and, for that matter, all relationships. The chapter on 'silencing the little boy' really hit home for me. Let's face it, what woman finds a whining little boy sexy and attractive? This books helps you find your 'power' and can help you be a better man.” -Robert


Ready for Prime Time!
“I have read and re-read Wayne's book and have now given copies to five close male friends. We all agree the information in this book is invaluable and has helped us to better understand how to get what we want out of our relationships, while helping us get what we need as men to grow and prosper. The book is well written and makes for an enjoyable read. Many times I find myself re-reading a chapter or reviewing the “Tools”, “Tips” or “Bettermen Actions” for practical advice on handling a situation. In short, this book is a quick read which will have a great impact on you and your relationships. I highly recommend this book due to its direct and no-nonsense approach. Based on the many responses from my friends, I can see Wayne and this book heading for prime time TV in the very near future.” -Bob


Could Also Stand for “Now Understanding Things!”
“If I had a dollar for every “light bulb" moment I had while reading this book, let's just say I'd be able to hire someone to read it to me again, while on vacationing on the Galapagos Islands, that I would have recently purchased. Seriously though, Wayne has a way of deciphering relationships into the most elemental truths and basic concepts. It is truly a manual, more like a survival guide, on how to navigate through life's relationships, The funny thing is, I find a lot of women get this book out of curiosity and agree with everything Wayne says. Hmmmmm....” -Lanre


Saves My Life
“Wayne's book SAVES MY LIFE on a regular basis. As a guy who has struggled all his life with his relationships, ESPECIALLY with women, I look to the Tools in the book for guidance, reassurance, and rescue. While the title may be cute, with the N.U.T.s hook, the reality is practical, smart, totally real and un-P.C., and exactly what I need on a regular basis. I'm in a good, loving relationship with a woman and this book is sustaining it. Thank you Wayne!” -Bruce


A True Men’s Guide to Life
“An extraordinary read on how to be a Man. A roadmap on how to build the kind of relationships that are possible. A must have for any man who has ever struggled with relationships. This book will help you become the Man you have always wanted to be.” -Chris
