The cult classic that can still change your life…
Let the dice decide!
When a bored psychologist hands over all of his decisions to chance, making choices on the roll of a die, he transforms his life – and the world.

rolls dice
the dice suggested that I don't write a review rather I talk about my cat Skittles. Skittles is a black domestic house cat that prefers to spend his morning sleeping in the sun at the little play area I built for him at the side of my house. in the afternoon he come in, eating some of his cat biscuits which he prefers to wet food then usually spends the evening s sitting in a chair next to me while I watch Netflix. he likes playing with string and sharpening his claws in my couch even though I'm sure he knows it's wrong. I love the little guy today although yesterday the dice told me to hate him and I chased him around the house with a rubber chicken which the dice decided to call Frank...

The morals of chaos
Fascinating social experiment, and dialogue around the validity of our personal preference and identity.
How do we allow ALL OF OURSELVES into our life!?!
I felt some of the writing revealed an adolescent excitement in describing breasts and vaginas, I felt the development of the testing centres could have been given more focus than the sexual exploits.
But overall a fascinating concept.

Amazing
I chose this rating because the Dice told me to and it’s also the most amazing book ever written and the narrator of the book is perfect so combined it’s absolutely Perfect.

God Bless the Book of the Die
First off, huge kudos to the narrator of this story as he was absolutely on point in becoming the character this book was trying to portray.
The Dice Man sparks something inside oneself which has always been there: simmering but never explored. It's hard to believe this book was written in the 70s as it seems so contemporary, more in the Bret Easton Ellis age of writing.
I adore The Dice Man - I'm curious to explore it in real life, but right now insist everyone reads it for their own perspective on it. It's haunted me ever since.

Worst book ever
This book was disturbing and sick I would highly recommend you do not read this. I would have to say this is the worst book I’ve ever read. I could not even finish it it was so disgusting

Not a cult classic: Just a stupid book
Pretentious, yet basic. I stopped reading, not only because it was boring, but I was put off by the rolling of a dice and raping women
