Quizá debí hacer caso antes a toda la gente que insistía en que leyera este libro. Es tan bueno como todo mundo dice.

Maybe I’ll be coherent once I stop crying. I’ll give it my best shot anyway.I had a love-dislike relationship with this book (as there was no point I in any way hated it), and I was pretty wary of it going in. I read this in my English class, and before we started, we got this full disclaimer about ...

Sitting here now, I don't know what to think of this book. I didn't hate it but there was nothing I could find that I particularly loved.The story was well crafted and the characterisation of McMurphy, in particular, was one of a kind. McMurphy was inspiring. I could believe him. This is a book that...

Even though I have seen the movie more times than I can count, I still managed to like this probably more than the movie. It feels even more believable and that, combined with the decision of who to narrate, makes it pretty easy to accept Kesey's analogy and, well, forget that there is a slightly cl...

Every time I read this, I keep hoping it turns out differently. I've never managed to get through it without putting it down and going, "Oh please oh please oh please...". Amazing book.

I had seen the movie version of this book years ago, so I knew that this would be a humorous story about a mental hospital and the smart aleck patient Randle McMurphy and his battles against the evil Nurse Ratched. But as usual, the book is SO much better than the movie - and the movie was pretty g...

I had to read this for a college class. It may have been because I was forced to read it, but the book was ok..it really did not keep my attention strongly as other books have done. I also felt the book was a bit "old" for my age, so I don't know how I would feel about it 20 years later.
