10 Things I Hate About You I found this book for family in Europe for .01 and is in pretty good shape. I buy study books as well, and I have not been disappointed in any of them most of them are new and still priced reasoniblly. Amazon.com is an amazing place to go for books. I have had no problems looking for the books I need.

The book was very clean and flawless. And I've ordered it from South Korea and the owner was soooo kind and carefull. I was kind of moved by her :)

I strongly suggest passing up this book. Due to it being a Scholastic book, all of the classic "innapropiate" humor is gone, making the book rather boring. Although it contains many quotes from the movie, it really lacks any interest and emotion.

Now I wanna watch the movie again . . .

Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2004

(Except I have too many other reviews to do!)
I finished this book in less than hour - it's only 170 pages long, but it certainly doesn't feel/look that long. Even a slow reader will finish this book in no time.
This is one of my fave films, and I love getting the books based on films or films based on books. This book was a definite exception, as most of them aren't very good. This definitely makes you want to watch the film all over again, reliving the best moments. Of course, some of the sex talk is cut from the book, and some other dialogue is missing - not that I can figure out WHICH, I haven't watched the film in a few months.
The chapters aren't very long, and some chapters - especially Cameron's - sometimes only have ONE line! Which is quite funny. I found Kat's chapters to be the funniest, especially the first one where she moans about her school. Also, in her first chapter, she sees this "mysterious" guy around school - who later we find out is Patrick, this wasn't done in the film.
There's also a great last chapter, from Kat's best friend (the one who LOVES Shakespeare), talking about the original, The Taming Of The Shrew. This last chapter is very interesting, as it explains how the characters got their names from the original.
You also have 8 (very fragile) pages of stills from the movie. The first one isn't shown in the movie, it must have been a cast photo, as it just shows the main characters who have chapters in this book - except Joey of course.
A terrific book for any fan of the movie and it does make it extra-tempting to read The Taming Of The Shrew.

Movie: good; Book; not so good

Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2001

They could have done a much better job with this book. Even though the movie was PG-13, the book was toned down to be appropriate to younger audiences. Because of that, a lot of the more fun parts of the movie (Kat flashing the soccer coach, Bobby Rigeway's fate at Kat's hands, most of the funny lines that included such horrible profanities as "screwboy") had to be omitted and you don't really get a clue as to what Joey's intentions are until the end of the book. Practically anything that could be construed as sexual innuendo was removed -- eliminating some of the funniest lines in the movie -- and the entire thing was pretty much toned down to be acceptable for a PG audience, not the PG-13 audience that the movie was intended for. That greatly diminished my enjoyment of the book. The writing was also something I considered subpar. While the dialogue was still of the same caliber of the movie, all of the thoughts and actions seemed flat to me. One of the main things I enjoy about novilizations is the fact that you can get inside the character's head, but there wasn't enough of that in this book, and what there was of it was well...dumb. For example, the whole fight at the prom (post Joey's little announcement) took up a page and a half in large type and anything the book says about their thoughts could be inferred from the movie or just plain common sense (gee, who would have though that Kat was angry and hurt. wow. revelations) In short, you might like this book if you don't mind that the best lines of the movie had to be cut and don't have very high standards for your reading material.

Not exactly as described

I am pretty disappointed. I was under the impression that as the product was described as "New" it would be in better condition. I saw the same book on Etsy as "lightly worn" but it had a much smaller imperfection on the cover. The price was $20, which I passed up to buy this one for $200. Now, the Etsy option is sold. I'm kind of upset about this.
