I loved the idea of reading the screenplay of a movie, that really all we get is diaglogue to base the characters on. I loved making the characters up in my head off of the brief description. Yet somehow it didn't take away from my movie experience when I went to see it.

This is an absolutely amazing book and I think everyone should read it. John Krasinski and Maya Rudolph are two extraordinary actors and I can't wait to see their portrayal of these two characters up on the big screen! :D

A quick read. Funny at times and just alright at others. If you've ever felt like you've been in a situation you've had to climb your way out of to survive then you may connect well with this book.
