Explanation During Books The Silver Linings Playbook

Meet Pat. Pat has a theory: his life is a movie produced by God. And his God-given mission is to become physically fit and emotionally literate, whereupon God will ensure a happy ending for him—the return of his estranged wife, Nikki. (It might not come as a surprise to learn that Pat has spent time in a mental health facility.) The problem is, Pat's now home, and everything feels off. No one will talk to him about Nikki; his beloved Philadelphia Eagles keep losing; he's being pursued by the deeply odd Tiffany; his new therapist seems to recommend adultery as a form of therapy. Plus, he's being hunted by Kenny G!

In this enchanting novel, Matthew Quick takes us inside Pat's mind, showing us the world from his distorted yet endearing perspective. As the award-winning novelist Justin Cronin put it: "Tender, soulful, hilarious, and true, The Silver Linings Playbook is a wonderful debut."

Piece Of Books The Silver Linings Playbook

Certainly a moving and entertaining fable about an obsessive love by a man recovering from a psychotic break. I liked how the nuttiness of the therapist about the Philadelphia Eagles and extreme behaviors of the fans shows levels of insanity among the larger society. But the story just keeps hitting the same notes again and again, and I got tired of being in Pats mind and his noble quest to be worthy of a life with silver linings. Damage is done to any meaningful public comprehension of mental

What a fun book! Im sure its enjoyable for anyone that doesnt have a stick up their ass, but its the kind of book that even non-readers will love, too, because its an easy read, and the chapters are short, and its entertaining the whole way through, and its funny as hell. Our narrator, Pat Peoples, is pretty crazy by societys standards. Hes been in the bad place for years, and once out, with the help of his sweet mother, hes trying to get his life back on track so he can reunite with his wife,

I really thought this was 'that stupid book' everyone loves and I would hate. Funny fact: I loved it.

I really enjoyed this book. The story is of a mentally deranged man who has spent four years in the mental ward of the hospital is learning how to conduct himself on the outside. He has a Wife he longs to see. He realizes that life does not always have a silver lining or a happy ending. It was very well written and I felt like I was right there with him for the book is placed here in Philedalphia.Enjoy and Be Blessed.Diamond

The reductive takeaway: The adult Perks of Being a Wallflower.Sometimes I wonder if I read the same book as other people. That's usually when I hate something that other people love. It's rarer when we both like the same book, but for vastly different reasons and have vastly different interpretations. But of course, the power of literature is interpretation, so it's to be expected.For some reason, people keep calling this book "fun" and "entertaining." I'm sure someone probably called it a

This novel felt like so much more than a debut novel. It felt wonderful and powerful and tinged with emotion, and I walked away from it with a sense of enrichment and fulfillment. Had I not read THE SILVER LININGS PLAYBOOK, Id still be the same person I am now, but I wouldve missed out on this opportunity to forget who I was for a few hours over the course of this character driven tale. Although this story is dark and psychological and filled with regret and anger and frustration, Id still say I

The book is SO much better than the movie! I'm actually kind of shocked how much they changed or left out in the adaptation. If you liked the movie, you should read the book and then maybe reconsider! :)
