About this deal

Honestly, this book felt a little like a therapy session at times (namely in the first 2/3s). I don’t mind hearing about a friend's personal therapy experiences, but I’m not as interested in a strangers. I think therapy is something most folks will need at some point in their lives. I certainly have found it useful. Qué es lo que me gustó muchísimo de este libro? Que no fue para nada lo que esperaba. Creía que iba a ser algo con retos súper sencillos y una trama más bien superficial. Sin embargo, el concepto de Nerve y de todos los desafíos que se entrelazan unos con otros es bastante abrumador, pesado y atemorizante. En Nerve vemos cómo este juego no solamente condiciona a los participantes, sino que los manipula tanto física como mentalmente. Vemos cómo Nerve los engancha, los satisface por un momento y luego empieza a debilitarlos y destruirlos. That was quite the ride! Nerve was thrilling, exhilarating and kept me reading for hours, not wanting to put the book down. You just had to know what was coming, what the next dare was going to be, how everyone was going to react. It was exciting up until the very end. I definitely recommend the movie over this book. None of the dares at the same and the characterisation in the movie is done so well. Ian is an amazing character and Emma Roberts acting is on point.

This book was nothing to write home about. It was boring, farfetched, ridiculous, weird and plain. This “high octane” story was, sadly, anything but exciting. warning if you just saw the trailer for this movie. And think "ehhhhh this doesn't look so bad", you're wrong. NOTHING that happens in the trailer happens in this book. Not a single thing... You've been warned.**Taking place in what seems like not too far into the future as the technology is a bit more than what we have yet but getting pretty close this seems to be something that may come up in our reality obsessed society. Some of the book too seems to serve as a reminder of just how much can be found out about someone from just social media and online presence. how more i think about the ending, how more i seem to hate it. So i rated it down from 4 stars to 3,8 At one point when one of the dares actually starts getting insane, and there starts to be a lot of build up, and the suspense is finally happening... it just drops off and the payoff is just this messy sloppy thrown together ending. And God is this ending so unsatisfying. Za partnera dobija savršenog Ijana.Ijan mi je od početka do kraja knjige ostao enigma,jer nikakve informacije o njemu autorka nije podelila sa nama.Ali nikakve.Iz izazova samo skontaš da želi da pobegne iz grada,što dalje. Pred kraj knjige ima jedna mala scena gde puštaju video kako stariji muškarac šamara dete,to je povezano sa Ijanom i njegovom tajnom i životom,i dalje se ništa ne saznaje

NERVE CONDUCTION STUDIES: ESSENTIALS AND PITFALLS IN PRACTICE NERVE CONDUCTION STUDIES: ESSENTIALS AND PITFALLS IN PRACTICE

At it's core, FEAR is self-revelatory memoir of Eva Holland's personal fears. Her fear of her mother dying, fear of heights, fear of driving after she had an accident, etc. And Holland writes about these fearful events with purplish, over-expressive and emothional prose that often made me cringe. In fact, I often felt like I was reading pulpy fiction, she writes so much about her sweaty palms and throbbing heart, etc. But as this is presented as non-fiction, I often rolled my eyes.I will admit my own personal experiences with trauma and grief made me struggle to relate to hers. This is a personal failing of mine as comparing trauma isn’t fair because trauma impacts people differently. But I’m noting it because it certainly did color my perception of the book and is a bias I readily admit. Un punto a favor de Nerve es que, si lo piensas detenidamente, es algo que fácilmente podría estar sucediendo, que no es una distopía de un mundo posapocalíptico, sino que es algo actual. En Nerve vemos reflejados los alcances de la tecnología, de lo oscuro que puede llegar a ser el internet, el anonimato y las ansias de fama y dinero. Nerve es un juego peligroso que saca lo peor de algunas personas. What I don’t get is, how the prologue fits into the story? I mean, it takes time obviously after Nerve when Vee is haunted by one of her Watchers. But the book ends with cute running session with Ian and taking photos with/of their fans. Quite bit difference, don’t you think? Guide to Understanding and Tapping into the Miraculous Healing Powers of the Vagus Nerve: Learn Exactly How To Tap Into Your Vagus Nerve And Break Free from Anxiety, Trauma and Limiting Thoughts (Kindle Edition) Vee and Ian realize the row of chairs in the hallway outside the room and curtain are like a stage, so NERVE's wealthy donors must be watching through a one-way mirror just a few inches away. They throw a table through the wall. Vee escapes, and Ian fights off the other players, who realize that if Vee leaves they all lose their prizes.
