REVIEW The Silver Linings Playbook Author: Matthew Quick Published:April 21, 2010 I really, really wanted to like this book more than I did. I can understand why other readers loved it, as it is well written with interesting characters and an unusual story line, but it was not for me, and I found...

W 9 na 10 przypadków ekranizacja nie może równać się z książką. Mimo całej wspaniałości kina i jego niezaprzeczalnej magii, filmy wypadają po prostu płytko przy książkach, w których złożoność i ilość przenoszonych informacji jest nieporównywalnie większa od tego, co może zaoferować nam największy na...

I was not expecting to like this book and the main character as much as I did. I was expecting a literary version of a romantic comedy and that's not what this book is about at all. Mental illness, depression, and dysfunctional family relationships - sounds like a pretty depressing book eh? But, ...

Il lato positivo / Silver Linings Playbook è sicuramente un bel libro, con personaggi ben caratterizzati ed interessanti, è scritto bene e la storia, per quanto non sia originalissima, è intrigante ma manca qualcosa. Mi aspettavo che, una volta sciolti tutti i nodi e ricordato tutto quanto, le cose ...

OVERALLI'm going to be straightforward and say that I saw the movie before I read the book. (I wanted to wait, but I have absolutely no willpower.) This is a rare occurrence, but I actually enjoyed the film a tiny bit more than the book. There was actually nothing wrong with the book, it just lacked...

Absolutely miserable waste of time. This book sets the standard of lowest bar below anything I could fathom; anything i have EVER read. It appears that this book was structured, not around a plot but around a shamelessly badly rendered character. This idea could have been surprisingly successful,...
There's more to life than reading, but it's a good place to start
Wow, I finished reading this book all in one go, checked out the clock and wondered where the time went ... Yikes! I guess I had a hard time getting out of Pat's crazy, emotional, fucked up world. Gotta say I loved it. For me, not an easy, fun and light hearted read as some reviewers have stated ....

I think this one was more disturbing than it was intended to be. Pat is in his mid-thirties and is just moving in with his parents after a long stint in a psych ward. There's a hidden past, obscured by Pat's delusions, child-like mind, and bursts of anger that keep others from talking about what's...

I truly enjoyed this book. I'm a little sad that I'm done with it actually because I wanted to know more about what happens with Tiffany and Pat but I guess I'll have to leave it up to my imagination instead.This is actually one of my first books that I have read from a male author, I have always as...

I was up until nearly 3 am finishing this. It's now going on 8. Review will be written when I'm not a zombie.
