Princess Bride, The by William GoldmanEntry #645246
Genre: Fantasy

Summary: Buttercup and Westley are your typical romantic couple, the ones that fall in love young and make plans for the future. That is, until Westley is pronounced dead and Prince Humperdink wants Buttercup for himself. So what does Buttercup do? Why, she agrees to marry him of course. With the promise that she will never love him. What Buttercup doesn't know is that her true love isn't dead. Oh, no. He's coming for her.

Why I Picked It Up: This book was chosen in my personal book club.

My Opinion: William Goldman is certainly unique. I had seen the movie a million times and figured it was about time I read the book. It was amazing, of course, and very un-historical in the way of dialogue and tone. It was certainly one that will remain in the reader's brain and become and instant favorite.

My Rating: Five Stars
