An interesting book on screenwriting full of interviews from other screenwriters. Not exactly a how-to book on screenwriting, but there is definitely something to learn within these stories of others.

**I received and voluntarily read an e-ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.**

I've read tons of screenwriting books, but I'm always on the lookout for the chance to read some more. Lew Hunter has been known for his great advice for decades, some the chance to read this book was awesome.

I do wish there had been even more screenwriters chosen to be added to this book, maybe some of the most recent Oscar/Emmy/Golden Globe winners or even some of the Marvel writers as they have had some of the most impact on the industry in recent years.

Overall, this book does a great job of taking some of the most famous screenwriting advice and condensing it all down into one book.
