Movie was better

Review previously placed on my blog:

I'm currently reading The cabin at the end of the world by Paul Tremblay. I'm listening to the audiobook. Reading this for the Magical Readathon for Conjuration with the prompt: colour wheel. This is an adult horror book with LGBTQ+ characters.

I watched the movie for this book and really enjoyed it, so wanted to see what the book was like. So far I really enjoy it. I think the adaptation is great, very accurate so far. Really love that the author put some casual LGBTQ+ characters in the book, appreciate that so much. Story is very tense. I do know the twist of course, but that is fine. Curious to see if there will be any changes from the book.

I did not completely finish this book, was a bit done with it at the end part. A certain character had a perspective and I just couldn't. I think the movie is better, so would recommend that. I do think they changed a certain thing there, which was why I did not enjoy the book that much.
