Well written, readable book about an interesting, flawed protagonist. I read without seeing the movie. Towards the end, there is a giant plot cliche (you'll know it when you see it) and then a realistic but ugly (and frustrating) ending. I don't feel like I wasted my time reading this book, but I enjoyed putting it down more than picking it up.
wonderful book. i loved it. can't wait to see the movie. this story will pull on your own crazy heart and have you rooting for the main character who is a flawed, but a very honest human being. read it. i am keeping mine. sorry.
Interesting story...will watch the movie next to see how it compares since it was an Oscar winner!
