If Someone Handed You a Book...

[MWes11]

And you started to read it and realized it was a story about your entire life, would you continue reading until the end?

Just thought it was an interesting question.

Is there an Index? I would definitely check to see if Margot Robbie made a cameo

Spoiler

She does not

 

[Joneslab]

Strangely, there's a book about this. Published last summer, oddly similar to Girl on the Train--and in some ways better.

 

[thecatsareback#8]

Spoiler

She does not

Then I would probably just read the first 50 pages and skip to the end of the book to see if the middle is worth reading like I usually do

On the Last Page: He/She never saw it coming... bleeding to death from a paper cut from this book.

 

[WildcatFan1982]

No because it would be really boring

I like the chapter about the OP that says, "I went to reddit to steal thread ideas."

(though I am sure this questioned has been asked for 100s of years.

I would.

Have never been on reddit in my life. I actually saw it on twitter.

Audiobook or nah?

Hell yes, and I'd recommend all y'all schlubs read it too -- my life is a GD, spine-tingling Homeric epic, truly the stuff of legends.

I don't have to read it then... already saw the story of your life.

 

[Blueisbest]

I'm not sure I want to know when and how I am to die, unless it would help me to be able to avoid it. Like a plane crash or home invasion. Then I might want to know.

 

[Ron Mehico]

No, no I wouldn't. Have no interest finding out how I die what that would do to me and the way I'm living my life.

 

[WildcatfaninOhio]

I'll wait until the movie comes out.

 

[College#19]

I would read it

Books suck and I don't read 'em.

 

[Crushgroove]

Would you let the wife read it?

 

[TruBluCatFan]

Hell yes, and I'd recommend all y'all schlubs read it too -- my life is a GD, spine-tingling Homeric epic, truly the stuff of legends.

At first I thought you said homoerotic epic!

 

[KyCatFan1]

Only if I could change events that happened that I didn't like the outcome of. Like if I find out I die from heart disease I might try to eat better and get more exercise to keep that from happening.

 

[Kooky Kats_anon]

I would not... Enough tragedy already.

 

[Teachable Moe]

My life story would fit on a post card.

 

[wildcatsboston1984_rivals]

Don't know if I would read to the end, I would definitely read up to the current if I could tolerate being bored. Perhaps that's how it would end, death from boredom. Would be interesting to know what secrets the author discovered about me. I've got two I'm for sure taking to the grave.

 

[MdWIldcat55]

I'd read it the same way I read every book -- I'd skip ahead to the sex scenes.

 

[Bodvar Bjarki]

Why read it when I am the one writing it?

 

[argubs2]

Or.....are you?

Same here. Now that Dad is gone, I'm the keeper of the family secrets. And all 3 are going to the grave with me. No need to cause pain unnecessarily.

Wait, what?
