Save the Cat: The Last Book on Screenwriting You'll Ever Need by Blake Snyder
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Review:
A pretty good manual on writing for beginners looking to make it in Hollywood. The sections of this book dedicated to plot structuring, character development, and fixing weak spots in a story are best for anyone not looking towards sound stages. I'd advise anyone looking to use this for general writing advice to ignore the story archetype and demographic sections.
I did find this valuable enough that I took 5 pages of notes over the course of reading this, and the text of the book itself was very quick and easy to read. I do really recommend it!
