It was interesting to me that I found this novella a few years after I had seen the movie. I was excited to read the story. One would normally think that any book is better by far than any movie. However, with this story, it was not the case. The story is very good and very well written but falls dreadfully short in comparison to the movie. If you liked the movie, skip the book. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/932924?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
