What Members Thought
I saw the movie and loved it. I also loved this book. I'm not sure which one I liked better. The book went into a little more detail about the characters and had a few scenes not in the movies and yes, a few things were different. But there was enough that was the same that it kept true to the book and made it all the more endearing to me. Portions of the book where the author starts in about what was supposed to be in this or that chapter made the book lag a little for me but not enough to ruin
...more
Thrilling, romantic and satirical all at once.
Loved the movie but the book was seriously meh for me. Some funny bits but on the whole, had to force myself to finish it.
One of the few instances where the movie is much better than the book.
