Two and half stars. Strangely readable. Objectively this book has very little going for it. The writing is so weak I wondered if the author is a native speaker of English due to all of the incorrect usages of words and the not exactly wrong, but just kind of weird way words are strung together. The plot is unbelieable and the relationship evolution non-existent. One of the characters, Mark is utterly unlikable and I could not for the life of me figure out what the other character, Steve saw in him.And still, with all that, I didn't have any trouble finishing the book. And now I have this weird urge to see the movie version, even though it is hard to imagine what exactly it was about this book that made someone want to turn it into one. I am having a hard time rating this one!I must say I have very conflicting feelings about that one..I don't know I was extremely disappointed. I watched the movie first and thought…"Meeh! well maybe the book will be much better." then I read the book and was farther disappointed! I hated all the Drama and all the crying DROVE ME FREAKING MAD!!! What the heck is wrong!! u're suppose to be two freaking MACHO males!!! It's like they are crying all the time!! and I must say I didn't care much for either Mark nor Steve..and I absolutely hated the last scene! A very hollywood thingie! I don't know what else to say except I am really disappointed and sad cuz I had very high hope for that book and the movie as well! :(
What do You think about Capital Games (2008)?
I liked this book and I liked Steve and Mark . I felt bad for them . Mostly Steve
