✓ Very Similar to the Movie Adaptation

˗ˏˋ ★ REVIEW ★ ˎˊ˗ 

Definitely went into this expecting more.  While I almost DNF’d it at 9% I kept going.  It was nearly identical to the movie only a few parts changed but ultimately it was an okay book.  I think I would have liked it more when I was a teenager rather than now but in the end I listened to the audiobook (in x3) in one go of it while I cleaned my house so it kept me busy entertained enough.
