Could have been a good book, but really was not. I like the “seize the day” message, but that’s literally it. This book was just chock-full of misogyny, racism, and bad writing. The fact that Knox sexually assaults and borderline stalks a girl and then ends up dating her?? Literally vile. Charlie’s cultural appropriation and misogyny as well was of course very gross. Mr. Keating showing them videos of naked women so they can “practice to not get distracted during college when there’s women around”??? What the fuck was that. The writing just wasn’t good, this includes using the word “moaned” to describe how any female character said anything and the way they cut some scenes from the movie in this that were important (to me at least). Also we saw basically no insight into any of the characters’ dynamics or even their own personalities. My only movie over book take I have is this.

i don’t specifically regret reading this because i looked cool doing it and it also didn’t cost me anything since i got it from my schools library but i do think that it wouldn’t have hurt if i just had watched the movie

I will never recover from this.

ok so it isn't perfect by a long shot and the film is 100 times better than the book but I found that reading the book and annotating it was a way to compile my thoughts abt the story and stuff.

no the writing isn't amaizing but ya know what the story is good enough that I was distracted and I honestly loved it 


Neil Perry my love I am so sorry.
