Po 4 miesiącach w końcu przebrnęłam przez "Wilka z Wall Street". Nie, żeby książka była mało interesująca - wręcz przeciwnie, temat, który bardzo mnie intrygował, natomiast słownictwo... Nie przeszkadzają mi wulgaryzmy, wręcz czasem są niezbędne, by dobrze zobrazować sytuację czy oddać charakter postaci, w "Wilku..." było ich dla mnie za dużo. Co trzecie słowo to "kurwa", co bardzo zniechęcało mnie do czytania. Również co poniektóre opisy życia seksualnego tytułowego bohatera powiewały tanim skandalem, który miał przyciągnąć czytelnika.

I'd seen the movie, and when I started the book I thought that they must have made things more ridiculous to make the movie entertaining. No. Jordan Belfort describes his life as a drug-addicted stock broker in the same way! This was an entertaining easy read.

I made it to the 6th chapter before I had to put down this frat boy confessional. Credit due to the author in that he said he was an ass from the get-go but good god there's only so much asshat-ery one can take. The writing was also...not good (loamy loins? wha?).

I do not recommend reading this book, particularly because research says that he's not paying proper restitution for his crimes from the royalties he's making from the book and movie.
I have no idea why I bothered to read this book. He's a class A jerk and spent entirely too many pages talking about himself as if he was some great victim. *gag*
