I read this book after I watched the movie,which isn’t something I typically do. I was hesitant to read it since I had already saw the movie (which I loved) I didn’t think it would really interest me since I knew what was going to happen. BOY was I wrong! This book made me feel so many things,more than the movie. The whole hand/handcuff situation made me so queasy. Watching it was one thing but to read it,with all the details and descriptions oh lord haha it was intended!
