LMAO just watch the movie. This is pretty much just a dull, tell-don’t-show, retelling of the film, with extra misogyny and no charm. It takes just as long to read the book as it would to watch the film, so read it if u want, but there’s really no point. The author makes it so hard to care about the characters because they’re written in such a dull way and doesn’t do anything to compensate for the absence of the actors’ energy or chemistry
