Breakfast at Tiffany's and Three Stories

I greatly enjoy Truman Capote's writing skills. However, I did not enjoy this book. Maybe it was due to the fact I was expecting it to be closer to the movie than it actually was. It was a great story, but I was lost in some of the story. I guess this would be the case in which the movie adaptation completely ruined my reading of this story.

I really don't know why people like this.
She's unlikable and annoying.
And the writing is offensive.

Knew little to nothing about this, but it's definitely not what I was expecting from what I'd heard about the movie. Nothing overly interesting, but the characters were just interesting enough.

This was so different from the movie. Capote's descriptions of Holly Golightly is at turns heartbreaking and charming, much like most of his short stories. She is a tragic character, trapped by her own desire to remain unattached.

I am such a fan of the movie, I wanted to see if the book was similar. I was impressed and intrigued by the author and their writing style. The book differs from the movie as Holly Golightly is not as romanticized as much as the plot as a whole. Audrey Hepburn definitely did an amazing job representing her and making her the main focus but in the books, it was more about the tenant in the apartment and their encounter with a writer (who is also the narrator and 1st observer of the story). I really enjoyed this quick read.
