i will admit, i watched the movie long before i ever considered reading the book, but i’m really glad i did.
i do wish that the story had been told in chronological order, but i can understand why it was told in two timelines. 
i thoroughly enjoyed how ominous and claustrophobic the book felt. it was truly unnerving and addictive. it was hard to put down once i got into it.
