Molly's Game: Inside the World of High Stakes Poker by Molly Bloom

pixiepages's review against another edition

I only read the book because I fell in LOVE with the movie. The book did not disappoint but the movie put a lot more things into perspective. It's crazy how her life turned out. She definitely made a name for herself. I highly recommend this book to everyone.

Very interesting read. Tobey Maguire sounds like a HUGE asshole. Underground Poker sounds fun, too bad I am not rich.

Poker, celebrities, mafia.

i started this back in the fall at my mom’s recommendation. and then promptly forgot about it when school picked up. it was just as deeply interesting this time around. i can’t wait to watch the movie.

Better than the movie for sure, and such an interesting look at the world of excess.

Devoured The Book

Absolutely loved this book. I saw the movie first with my family and we all left the theatre completely obsessed with Molly Bloom. We spent the entire dinner afterwards reading her entire Wikipedia page and that night I bought the book on kindle. I wholeheartedly recommend this book - it was an incredible story full of power dynamics and strong boss ladies. It's impossibly to not become fully engrossed in Molly Bloom's story!
