Nov 05, 2018cannotbeheard rated this title 5 out of 5 stars
I'm rounding up my 4.5 stars to 5. This was a fantastic book. But, because it is also a movie, you will now find me comparing the two. The story was extremely creative. Overall, I think I liked the ending in the movie better but I am glad they were different. I loved the changes the movie made but there were some things that I thought were done better in the book. I liked Stephanie more in the book even though Anna Kendrick did a great job. I was happy they went into more detail of exactly what happened to Stephanie's husband and half brother in the book. If I had to pick between the book and the movie, it would be hard for me to choose. I loved the movie but I think I would have to choose the book. There was a nude painting of Blake Lively in the movie that I didn't care for. It felt like it was in there for the shock factor and they kept dragging it back into the plot. I felt like this was even more true after reading the book and finding out that what was such a key piece in the movie, wasn't even in the book. Definitely worth a read and a watch.
