That's the fascinating issue at the heart of There's that old literary saw that says if the main character of a book doesn't change, the book is a failure. Decent enough I guess. October 20th 2008 I saw the movie first and then read the book, and enjoyed that order.On finishing The Spectacular Now I feel hollowed out and slightly sick – not because the ending was bad but because as much as I didn’t want it to, it ended in probably the most realistic way it could. There’s no doubt that Sutter is the life of any party – but when it comes to relationships, he fizzes pretty quick. He avoids Aimee during school and goes to Cassidy's house that night. He has a big heart, fragile and exposed. So Cassidy dumps him, and Sutter finds healing in the bottom of a whisky bottle.

Part of his embracing whatever happens is knocking back enough whiskey to make thThis is a weird book. Part of his embracing whatever happens is knocking back enough whiskey to make the weird palatable and normal. Afterward, Sutter confesses that his mother kicked his father out when he was a child and has forbidden him from seeing him, and the pair makes a pact to stand up to their mothers. The best way to deal with it is to live in the now, pursue all the pleasure and deal with none of the grief." After the dance, Aimee tells him that she is going to college in Philadelphia near her sister, who can help her find an apartment and a job. Sutter drives past Aimee, who is waiting for him by the bus to Philadelphia, leaving her heartbroken. He goes out and gets blackout drunk after sneaking in to a bar. Moments of my own high school experience flashed through my mind as I read this. It'...This National Book Award Finalist is now a major motion picture -- one of the most buzzed-about films at Sundance 2013, starring Shailene Woodley and Miles Teller.This National Book Award Finalist is now a major motion picture -- one of the most buzzed-about films at Sundance 2013, starring Shailene Woodley and Miles Teller. Boy with a superhero complex, wilting maiden who needs to be rescued... Oh and obvs she's not like other girls...........I'd have never picked up this novel in a million years if it weren't for the fact that the screen writers of "500 Days of Summer" wrote the screenplay for the movie version of this novel.

I get it that it's about high school kids trying to find their way in life but I don't know just something about this book rubbed me the wrong way. He learns that she is smart, funny and into sci-fi and comics. He lives by the motto of 'embrace the weird', meaning just go with whatever happens and make the best of it. Aimee, crying and not paying attention to the road, is clipped by a passing car. In some ways I wanted to hate it because the way it almost glorified teenage drinking and partying.I don't know if I hated this or I loathed it. Nice review - great perspective between the book and movie! It's like going back and glimpsing what's really going on in the mind of the class clown or partier. Live Fast, Love Hard, Die Young Written by Joe Allison Performed by Faron Young Courtesy of Dominion Entertainment Inc. Everyone knows that if you want a good time, you call Sutter Keely. Pain like that can’t be contained forever, and I do feel that despite the ending, he has begun to see certain things more clearly. The party to him though is all of life. Funny, sad, pathetic, sympathetic... and most importantly, pretty darn authentic. I get it that it's about high school kids trying to find their way in life but I don't know just something about this book rubbed me the wrong way. But what if the unchanging main character is the catalyst by which others are allowed to change?

Sutter and Aimee leave. But right now he’s hoping to hold on to his current girlfriend, the gloriously fat and beautiful Cassidy – of Icelandic eyes and Nordic locks. The best way to deal with it is to live in the now, pursue all the pleasure and deal with none of the grief."
From The Hunger Games to The Fault in Our Stars, some of Hollywood's biggest movies began as beloved young adult novels.
