Over winter break I finished this book. It is about a married man named Pat and how he always believes in silver linings. He believes that life is like a movie and every movie gets worse before it gets better. This is the idea that helps him to face all of his challenges. One thing you need to know about Pat is that he is mentally unstable. He has been in the"bad place" ever since his "apart time" with his wife Nikki has been going on. Pat truely believes his wife will come home to him soon. Of course by home, I mean his parents house. That is where he moved when he got out of the bad place.
When back in his home town he meets Tiffany. She is a widow with serious word choice problems. Throughout the book you will discover that Pat and Tiffany have more things in common than you would think. I think this book is not very complicated to read, it just has a lot of swearing in it. But don't get me wrong, it is still a really funny book. I also really like how the plot of the story is not what you usually read. It is very unique.
Wow that seems like a really great book! I enjoy when plots are unique and in this story, that definitely seems to be the case. I've heard of this book but I never knew what it was about. Now that I do though, it seems really interesting and i can't wait to read it. Great post Hannah!
ReplyDeleteI never realized the movie Silver Linings was based off of an actual book (not that i have seen the movie considering its rated R) but the book does sound very interesting! I will have to put it on my books to read list.
