askxtine's review against another edition

emotional reflective sad fast-paced

4.5

I loved the movie and the book is scene for scene identical. Who doesn't fall in love with these characters? Who doesn't sob at the ending (even when you know it's coming)?  I mostly read this because I want to read the next two in the series. Did not disappoint.

This book hasn't aged well and is even more problematic than I remembered. It's an emotional read but impossible to look past the raging ableism and saviorism.
