From my point of view, I would recommend ordering it openly, regardless of what she thinks. If she asks about the title, then tell her "It's a self-help book about taking responsibility for my life, and improving my self esteem and confidence." If she sees you reading it or sees it lying around, then let her look it over.

My own wife snorted at the title, but agrees with much of what the book recommends --> she's applauded my efforts to 'man up,' and finds me a much more attractive and sexier guy for it.

Just my 2 cents.
