My Pick to Read: December

 The Wolf of Wall Street by Jordan Belfort

 

 Every month, I'll be picking a book that you must read. This month's pick to read is The Wolf of Wall Street by Jordan Belfort. The film version, directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Jonah Hill, and Matthew McConaughey is coming out Christmas Day. I can't wait to see this movie, as Leo is my all-time favorite actor. Martin and him make a great team, as their movie collaborations are some of my favorite. Such films include, Shutter Island, The Departed, and The Aviator. The film is even garnering a lot of Oscar buzz, which makes me very excited. Leo has been snubbed for many years, and to see him obtain a nomination would be wonderful to see. Anyways, the plot and story of this film and book really intrigues me to no end. Crime and corruption seem to be the main themes by the look of the trailer, but it's also funny, as it's a dark comedy. I would definitely recommend reading the novel this month. You can read it before the movie comes out, or after if you don't want to get spoiled and if you want to be surprised. I know I am going to do my best to read it this month and you should too!
