Unpopular opinion. I grew up with the 1990 movie adaption. I was not aware that it was a book until recently. I usually like the book better than the movie, no matter which order I discover the story. I really didn't find anyone likable. Elnora came across as materialistic, almost whiny. In my opinion, the book had a lot of filler fluff. I almost DNF a few times. My opinion may be biased because of the movie. I also listened to it on Audible, and I was not a fan of the reader either. So that may have been part of the reason why I disliked this book so much. The star I gave it was for the nostalgia.
