I wasn’t sure what to expect here, I have never seen the movie, but was mostly pleased with the book. If I’m being real some of the plot was a little confusing for me, like why were people doing these things? However, the writing is so smooth and propulsive, and I loved the humor that is infused throughout. I guessed some of the twists but felt like it came together with things I didn't see coming. It reminded me a lot of my dad who would’ve been a teenager in California when the novel was set.
