Let me start by saying I've been watching Good Mythical Morning for.. maybe two years before reading this book, so I was quite endeared by the two of them. I originally purchased this book for 3 reasons: the first was because it was a signed copy, the second because I wanted to know their secrets to building a strong friendship, and third because I was hoping that, somehow, their words could help me learn to better deal with my anxiety and depression.

I learned a lot about them that I didn't know and read some interesting experiences that they've had. There's actually a lot more stories than there are images, which kind of surprised me, but I'm not disappointed by that. I really enjoyed reading about their lives, and there were even a few interactive pages! For example, there was the LCT, or Laugh Compatibility Test, which I took with my mom and received a score of 3. There's also a Love Line Match Up, where you match quotes and lyrics to their respective speakers, along with a variety of other quirky things to experience!

I feel like this book got me thinking a lot about things. It spoke to me on a deep level and I feel like I've grown as a person just from reading it. I hope in the future I can apply some of their tips and tricks to help my own life be more mythical. You don't have to be a fan of their YouTube show, Good Mythical Morning, to read this book, though it does help. Even if you go into it knowing nothing about them, I bet you'll be a fan and want to check out their show afterward! They are both creative and inspiring individuals that have brought a whole new meaning to being mythical.

To that, I'm eternally grateful and will forever remain their fan, a true mythical beast. ( )

I've been watching Good Mythical Morning since Chia Lincoln and T-Shirt Wars when they were still in North Carolina. The book was warm and funny. It shared insights into the brand of Mythicality. Rhett, Link, their wives and some of the crew read the book. They made a book that thousands (millions?) would read seem like it was written just for me. I'm glad I bought it.

Note for those who would like to hear a few more details of the True Story of Link's Broken Pelvis, it can be heard on a 2009 GMM at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p0eiJIgVc9s. ( )

Rhett and Link is a source of nostalgia for me, as one of the original youtube channels I really loved. Their humor doesn't quite connect with me like it used to, but I still find their antics charming and fun. Seeing them live in Minneapolis was fantastic, their personality radiates off the stage.

It came with their book, which is a short "Guide" to essentially being a man-child. I don't say that as an insult, I think it's a very valuable skill to keep a certain level of goofiness, and lord knows I'm clutching to a certain level of silly behavior.

It wasn't groundbreaking, and it's clear that they're unfamiliar with his medium. In my opinion, Rhett and Link are at their best when performing music, so this book definitely fell short of their usual quality standards. That being said, it was impressively well put together. It's clear that it was not only professionally published, but a lot of effort and time went into the execution.

Not a bad way to spend an afternoon, but probably not worth the price unless you're a diehard fan. ( )

This is was a good memoir with some fun pictures and plenty of funny anecdotes. If you are a fan of the YouTube show Good Mythical Morning you'll at least enjoy flipping through the book even if you don't read every chapter in detail. If you aren't a fan of the show I can see this not being a very easy memoir to pick up. This is a story of friendship, growing up, and curiosity - compelling messages in themselves and ones nearly every person can equate to, but if you don't have any interest in the show or its hosts this probably won't be as compelling of a book.
