A Simple Favor by Darcey Bell
4.0

firstly i want to say i read this as an audiobook and i would recommend that a lot as it made the reading experience better, i feel like i wouldn’t have liked it as a kid physically book.

I initially read this so that i’d watch the movie, but when i finished it and went to watch the movie the movie was too fast paced and gave us no attachment to the characters like the book did. i stopped watching the movie 30 mins in when something that had happened half to mid way in the book already started happening.

The book to me did a very good job at pulling the reader in, it was slow paced in a sense in the beginning but the mystery was well worth it. When the big part of the book starts that when it’s gripping page to page. I’m happy i read the book and not watched the movie only because i appreciated the story a lot. Emily and Stephenie were amazing characters to hear from. All the plot twists were not the usual ones i would have thought there would have been, and i loved all of them.
