"God, I love this book. It's the history of an utterly depressing war with no real nobility, that ultimately descends into cannibalism. Right up my alley."

I did not relate to this novel at all. I found it sterile and devoid of any suspense despite the dramatic nature of the story. Cold and depressing.

Deeply affecting and relentlessly depressing, The Souvenir may be a movie I never want to watch again, but I'm glad I watched it once.

Predictable and Sad
I enjoyed this film but it’s predictable and I didn’t think parts would be as depressing as they were. I took my little sister to see this in the cinema and she enjoyed it until it started to get really upsetting, I think it’s a bit too sad to be a kids film. Other than that it was a nice change to the other films that have been released.

Depressing
Each chapter of this book is its own story, and all the stories take place in the same subdivision in 1979's Toronto. The writing style was really good. Each story had me hooked, and it didn't take me long to finish the book. Unfortunately I didn't particularly enjoy any of the stories. They were all sad. I do normally enjoy sad stories, but these lacked the redeeming qualities I like. It was all very realistic in the most depressing way possible.

Great show!
I love this show. Never seen anything like it. But, it is not one of those shows that leaves you in a better mood after watching.

Interesting
This is a great film about the early Feminist movement. It's a Shane or misses out some vital parts but you get the idea of how hard it was, and still is for women.

This is a depressing book for younger children. I found myself remembering the time that I read this book in 7th grade. The book is definitely written for children. It is definitely an emotional book. I remember crying in class while I was reading it.

This is one of the most depressing books that I have ever read. I felt the need to reread it to see if it really was as depressing as I remembered it, it was.

I finally decided that I needed to reread the book. Though the book did not give me the emotional reaction I had in middle school I did feel sorrow for the main character.

This is an anti-bullying book but it seems that it is more about how the rich will rule the world and the poor will be forced to walk in the streets.
