Well this one definitely holds up. Most of my memories of this book came from the movie, which I had seen more recently than the book. But it is such a good story, and definitely still interesting for adults. I really enjoyed revisiting this one.

Hands down, the movie was almost word for word with the book. The book was just as amazing and I wish I had read this when I was in school.
