Nerve

Product Information

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. Nerve é uma leitura compulsiva, daquelas de ranger os dentes , onde somos envolvidos numa série de desafios que começam por ser insignificantes , mas sucedem num crescendo que rapidamente os eleva a expoentes extremos e perigosos!

Nerve: Self-Help Accessing the Healing Power of the Vagus Nerve: Self-Help

Does it turn deadly? Sure. But this doesn't happen until near the end, saving it all for the climax. What was I expecting? More blood, that's for sure; more danger, more horrifying situations, more serious consequences. Definitely something a lot more sinister than singing in a cafe, or asking people for condoms. When dare after dare ended up being as trivial as the last, I resigned myself to the fact that this simply was not going to be as suspenseful as I had previously imagined. Nonetheless, I can't say I didn't secretly take pleasure from the antics the characters were put through. It was entertaining, just not exactly thrilling. Once we get to the finale and things start to get darker, I finally got a glimpse of what I had hoped this whole novel would be: The stakes are sky high, and the level of anxiety rises tremendously. It also brings about a lot of new questions regarding the integrity of this whole game. This "anonymous" organization does have quite an ominous vibe, I just wish it was introduced much sooner. I wanted to watch Nerve (long time before I have known there is a book) for one simple reason: Dave Franco. OMG, I-love-him! The character he plays in the movie is totally my dream boyfriend.I've raged and raged against the trope that being shy is a defect of character and that not being the center of attention means you're doing something wrong. But in the interest of once-more-with-feeling: giving us a costume and make-up designer who is secretly a bitter failed actress, and then thrusting her into the spotlight to show the actual actors up is a fundamentally inaccurate, insensitive and ignorant way of, as John Green puts it, imagining others complexly.

Re-reads come with risks. They can be really fun, but they can also turn some of your favourites into… not-so-favourites. And sadly, this is also the case with Nerve. While the premise still sounds really exciting, the execution somehow falls as flat as a pancake. I had the same problem with Panic, of a similar premise which I ended up hating. I’ve seen people say the plot is far fetched, that no one would play this game. But is it really? People do dangerous stuff, crazy stuff and dares etc. just to get views on YouTube. Is it really hard to imagine them doing the same stuff to get the prizes they most want? Umesto da se vratim u školu kao idiot koji se svađao s najboljom prijateljicom pred kamerama,biću neko koje rizikovao sve da bi osvojio nešto veliko.Ja sam neko ko ima stav.Koga gledaju hiljade ljudi.I još više će ako uradim naredne izazove.Ovo veče mi je pokazalo kako da razmišljam šire.Ili bar drugačije."These days, I still love Hawaii, but have found my home under the moody skies of the Pacific Northwest. NERVE is a new game. Millions of people around the world watch videos of other people performing dares, each one more challenging than the next. So when the dares get really crazy, why on earth would you play? Because of the prizes. The people at NERVE know exactly what your heart’s deepest desires are and with each dare you complete, you get that pair of shoes you’ve been ogling for ages, or a brand new cell phone. Hell, you could even get a scholarship to that university you’ve been dying to go to. So what have you got to lose? 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. You don’t have to worry you will be spoilered by movie before you read the book because they are two different stories. The only thing that the movie and this book have in common is the idea of truth and dare game. And Vee’s name. Despite all of that, it was the plotline that ruined Nerve for me. I assumed this book was going to be a thriller. While it desperately tried to be, especially in the second half, it fell flat. I didn’t like how the game, NERVE, was portrayed. It didn’t feel like a legitimate threat at all! There was no sense of urgency surrounding the dares. They weren’t even dangerous, just mildly embarrassing. The final scene tried to up the stakes but it felt… I don’t know, weird. It was so random, I could not fathom why anyone was participating. The ending was the icing on the cake. It was awful.
