Name of the book: Silver Linings Playbook

Roonie, one of Pat’s best friend, finally came to visit him. Speaking of Roomie, Pat is kind of upset since Roonie didn’t ever go to visit him when he was in mental hospital. When Pat heard Roomie said “I’m on my way home, so I only have a few minutes.”, Pat knew that Roomie’s wife, Veronica didn’t know Roonie’s visiting. When some situation happens or things go wrong, it is really hard and so depressed to realized that who you see as best friends doesn’t really care about you so much like you do. Pat might have been waited Roonie to visit him in bad place for so long, and the result turned out to be that Pat never seen Roonie once. I felt sad when read this. I do because I think best friends are supposed to be those who you can share life’s ups and downs with.

　  Based on Dr. Patel’s suggestion, Pat did wear eagle jersey to the dinner party. It is quite funny having problems choosing outfit to wear to the dinner. Well, I actually have this problem as well. The differences between Pat and me are that Pat doesn’t know which clothes to choose because of Veronica’s fussy, and I just have problems of making decision. Also, I am really curious about why Pat hates Kenny G so much. I guess it must have some relation to Nikki or apart time. Every time when Pat speaks of Nikki in the book, the words Pat uses to describe Nikki are really beautiful. I can feel how much Pat loves Nikki and cares about her only by reading the words, which is romantic. It seems that Pat is getting better than before. He not only practices being kind but also tries hard to control his temper. It is good and happy for reader to see his growth gradually.
