Eight Million Ways to Die

What should I say? I have a lot of connection with this book. I first saw on the video copy that no one shared the same reasoning as me... I was shocked at that time. I saved the copy and threw the screenshot into the photo album. Then I saw it again when I was cleaning up the photo album. It took me on and off for three years to read it. I thought about buying the physical book, but I always forgot, so I just read the electronic version. I love this book very much. I like Lawrence's description of Matt. He is humorous, funny and helpless in the ordinary. I still remember the mood when I saw "My name is Matt and I have nothing to say". He turned a corner in a serious conversation. This book was very helpful to me. Its language and various descriptions. Chance is also very cute, a super pimp? So funny It is plain, has no twists and turns, but its magic and attraction kept pulling me to read it. What I said before is true, but this book is a first-person perspective. We look at this New York with eight million ways to die from the perspective of "I, Matt". Matt's calmness leads us to look at New York, life, and alcohol. His fluctuations in his career are inexplicable. "An ounce of bourbon"

(Contains spoilers, personal analysis) There are eight million stories in this city, and eight million ways to die. "I'm Matt, and I have nothing to say." This sentence Matt said at the alcohol rehab meeting was his helplessness towards this reality. Matt had already begun to explore this reality when he was seeking answers to the death of Kim, a blue-eyed girl whom he had only met a few times. The city targeted him again and again. The murderer's threats, the murderer who forced Matt to break his leg, and the deaths of several people were the city's efforts to dissuade Matt, which made Matt and us readers clearly realize the absurdity of reality. Matt wants to know The answer is to open up the reality and let him see it. The story is coming to an end. The case is solved, but has there been any change to this city and this terrible reality? Matt went to the tavern again and ordered a glass of wine and a glass of water. When making a decision about the book When it arrived, Matt drank all the wine or whatever. This was Matt's choice not to face the reality, to live a drunken life or to live sober. In fact, when Matt also ordered a glass of water, he had the answer in his heart. After all, he only needed to order a glass of wine to decide whether to drink or not. Then Matt called Jane, the friend who was supervising his drinking. No one answered, so he called again. Still, Matt hoped that Jane would persuade him, but the final direction of Matt's heart could only be decided by himself. Finally, at the alcohol rehab meeting, it was Matt's turn to say, "My name is Matt, and I am addicted to alcohol." This actually means that after Matt recognized the nature of this terrible reality, he still dared to face reality without compromising on reality. In fact, there is a hint of this result in the article. In Chapter 29, Matt agrees, "The amazing thing is that you don't drink. Eight years is amazing, but eight days are equally amazing." Matt solved this case and made a very small contribution to changing reality for the better. It is innocuous to the entire reality, but it is also amazing. What is important is not how much you have changed, but the change. There are eight million ways to die, but there are also eight million ways to live. The question is how you live.

I have wanted to read this book for a long time. Sometimes the relationship with a book is very strange. Sometimes I can't get into it, but suddenly at a certain moment, I finish reading it in one breath.

Everyone's lives are closely related to me

This book realistically depicts loneliness and people's living conditions in the city. Some characters in the book impressed me deeply, such as Marcy. Her sentence "There are eight million people in this city and eight million kinds of loneliness" really touched my heart. I quite dislike the character of Chance. I feel that he is very mysterious and always unpredictable. But overall this book is very good and worth reading.

It's very interesting, a good novel about self-redemption, the plot is also very attractive, and the narration is vivid and humorous! It is very close to life, and the inner activities of the characters are described very realistically and delicately. I decided to read another book by the author!

The chaos of urban order, the spread of various crimes, and various unexpected ways of death. By telling the story of the protagonist investigating the murderer who killed King, it shows the chaos of the United States at that time. It is quite realistic about crime, and the official response and approach are very realistic.

Complaints about life in New York [laughing and crying]

I have long heard about the name of the author Lawrence Block. It is indeed a great American tough guy mystery novel. The protagonist is very real. He has no home, lives in a cheap hotel, and relies on the income from the occasional detective work. He lives a day-to-day life. When he is hungry, he buys bread and sandwiches. When he is thirsty, he goes to the pub and drinks Coke and ginger ale. Of course, he also has the pain of trying to quit drinking. It feels very suitable to be adapted into a game.

I like it very much, Tony Leung

There's no twist, but it's not bad. After watching it, I want to sigh and congratulate the leading actor.

Great book, you will want to read it!

The content is okay, I was attracted by the title of the book The content is good, the murderer was caught, and the protagonist successfully quit drinking.

It is a novel with a very cinematic feel. I seem to be able to see the protagonist walking alone through various streets and bars.

I think it's very beautiful

Everyone's lives are closely related to mine. My name is Matt and I have nothing to say.

The details are well drawn and the theme is very concise, giving me a feeling of Keigo Higashino.

Good, good, good, good

Okay, it's pretty good-looking

✌︎' ֊' The live action sound is well done.

Lonely private detective

The overall temperament of this book appeals to me

I bought the paper book and read it together with the Tomato novel, tough guy reasoning, good, my name is Matt, I have nothing to say🌚

The writing is great, the suspense is high, and the ending is not grand enough.
