Helpful Score: 3
Before the movie there was a book. And lo, the book was better than the movie. Most of the adaptations were good and still in the vein of the story so that was nice to see. I appreciated the subtle difference. I especially appreciated her school struggles, and how her friends reacted to them, a point glossed over in the movie. The romance was differently directed as well and I am interested in reading the second now.
