I have been saying this too, every post i see when people have asked a question which could be answered pretty quickly and then some one replies saying read the DJ bible is bad advice, and a waste of there time. I personally have read almost everything i can get my hands on (without spending a penny too i might add), and it actually had a negative effect on my game, because i started questioning everything about me when there was only a slight thing i had to work on in the first place.
I don't think that the majority of people here need to work on every aspect of there game, they find there sticking points and just work on that by doing a search, same goes with any books i read on seduction these days, i normally just skip to the parts i want to work on and see what they have to say on that unless i enjoy the writing style then i read more and i even disagree with a lot of it now.
You don't need to read every single thing in books on seduction, its a reference book not a novel.
