Wow! Just like the movie! Well, at least I know now what a "novelization" is. This is one instance in which I'd recommend the movie first. I think the movie scenes portray Murph's room over time brilliantly; I'd looked to the book to describe these scenes on equal terms if not better and here I thought it came up short. The book did do a nice job of conveying what characters were thinking rather than seeing an actor stare at the camera

let me make one thing very clear. if in any case you have got the book in your hand and if you are uncontrollably tempted to start off with the book(which you will be thanks to the book cover ) please do control yourself in case you haven't watched the film yet. a simple clear instruction put in front of you. watch the film and read the book. now if you need a review for this book I'm sure you haven't seen the flick. this book is just a slightly detailed version of the movie. it has exactly the same narration as the movie with a slightly improvised support for certain scenes. Wat the book does is make you travel through the stars(whoa I have leaked the meaning of the title) this time a more in-depth analyzing one. if you have followed my instruction I honestly say you'll enjoy the ride. else you'll be cursing yourself for sure. I won't dwell into the book's storyline. no I won't. so that's it. my only request don't miss this book and don't fail my instruction

I haven't seen the movie yet. The book had good writing. Great twists. Great storytelling. It was a little confusing at parts and I struggled to picture certain scenes so it'll be nice to watch the movie and see exactly what was meant.
