Big Fish by Daniel Wallace

3.0

This was an awesome book. It was light and easy to read. Instead of chapters it is divided into "myths" about Edward Bloom. This format makes it a refreshing, original read, and also makes it easy to find a place to stop if I had to. It was fantastic, and interesting, though if you expect something like the movie, it was very different, and took on a slightly more serious tone sometimes. There was one difference between the book and the movie that knocked off a star. This difference presented itself during the second to last "myth." I would say what it is, but, you know... "Spoilers!"
Anyways, I recommend this to fans of the movies, or anyone looking for a nice fresh read.
