The Princess Bride by William Goldman

4.0

adventurous funny informative fast-paced

Goldman’s ’memoir,’ which is nigh half the book, is very interesting, the most interesting take of the entire thing for me (especially the part about Kathy Bates), but the inserts mid-story were annoying and distracting (though I get it). All in all, I just want to read the original now. This abridgment feels very much like a patchwork quilt and I need the missing squares!
