Silver Linings Playbook

Hey all, sorry I haven't updated in like a month! This past month was very busy but awesome. I am so lucky and blessed to be doing the things I have been doing. :) I recently finished reading The Silver Linings Playbook and loved it! I watched the movie before reading the book, which I shouldn't have but I still enjoyed every sentence. Here is my review about the novel:

The only problem I faced was that I watched the movie before reading the book. I loved the movie and decided to read the novel, and I know movies vs. books are always different. It ruined the experience of the story since I expected many scenes to occur which didn't happen. Although different scenes played out, the outcome of the novel still left you speechless and happy. I enjoyed reading every page and couldn't put it down. It was an incredibly easy read. The main character also mentions other infamous novels to read as well throughout the story. I would recommend this book to others -- it is relatable to many and gives you hope, a silver lining.

Quotes:“If clouds are blocking the sun, there will always be a silver lining that reminds me to keep on trying.”“Life is hard, and children have to be told how hard life can be…So they will be sympathetic to others. So they will understand that some people have it harder than they do and that a trip through this world can be a wildly different experience, depending on what chemicals are raging through one’s mind.” 

“You need to know it's your actions that will make you a good person, not desire.”
