I mean, it was all right. Since the book was based on a movie this was the one time I’ve ever said the movie was better. The plot was just extremely lacking because there wasn’t really anyway you could diverge from what was already created. For some reason though,
Neil’s death scene was extremely downplayed in the boom and was even different than in the movie which I thought was weird
. Overall I really do just adore this movie so it wasn’t a terrible read.
