3.5 rounded up

Good book but we all know the only reason it got 'book of the year'... Definitely a bit overhyped.

Between 3 and 4 stars for me. I watched the show first and I rarely ever say this but I liked the show more than the book because it flowed much better and the creative liberties they took to change the story made the characters more believable.

This book was heavier than I realized it would be and I didn’t like the dog angle, but otherwise, I really enjoyed this.

I don't understand how this book got to be so popular. It read like a soap opera to me.
