Book Reviews of Leaving Las Vegas
Book Review: Best Book to Movie
Summary: 5 Stars
I read this book after the movie and I have to say it augments it and intensifies it. I have never seen a movie that so closely matches the tone of the book. There are small differences (slightly different chronology- Sera's rape happens at the begining not the end, language toned down a tiny bit)but overall I am amazed that so much of the novel is in the film. If you love the movie, your love will deepen after this read.Book Review: For a moment, I almost followed his footsteps...
Summary: 5 Stars
I haven't seen the movie yet, so I wanted to read the book first. Overall, it's a great story that can pass for reality. I'm sure there's an alcoholic somewhere on the path toward self-destruction... all he needs to do is find his prostitute girlfriend. I personally have been going through trying times; as I was reading the book, I'd accompany each chapter with a few shots. I hope the movie doesn't disappoint.Book Review: A Psychic Masterpiece!
Summary: 5 Stars
O'Briens novel is much better than the screen version. Not only do Sera & Ben seem original and real they also portray a part of the true nature of the Las Vegas mind-set. A must for dark poet fans.Book Review: The greatest love story ever told
