Would you consider the audio edition of The Playbook to be better than the print version?

The fact that it is Neil Patrick Harris reading it in character as Barney, it was an instant selling point as a fan of the show. Sure having "The Playbook" as an actual book would have been awesome too, but there is an added bonus here that you could not have gotten by reading the book itself. Hearing it from Barney himself

What did you like best about this story?

It's pretty much every twisted, sexist plan you would come to expect from Barney, full of ones you would have heard having seen the show but many of them are not. It was pretty cool and funny too at the same time.

What does Barney Stinson and Neil Patrick Harris bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

Well you might read it in his voice in your head, many of us would with any other kind of novelty book but hearing it from man himself (both the character and the actor) brings a sprin would might not have gotten otherwise.

If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?

I wouldn't imagine they would, there is not much of a plot to turn into a film, I guess it would be his catchphrase from the show. It's going to be legend wait for it dary! legendary

Any additional comments?

It is a definite must if you are a fan of the show

Pretty mic what you'd expect, legendary
