Sandra =) Book? ... or Movie? :)


Bailey Rutan I think they were both very good. The movie was very close to the book which was amazing. It's very rare that the movie is fitted well to the book so I really appreciated that. :)


Nathan Manfull Loved both, gotta go with the book though. Probably just because I read the book before the movie, had it been vice versa I may have liked the movie more! Both great i thought!


Brittany I liked them both, but I loved the movie more!


Charlie The book was more saddening and sexual. I liked both equally.
"The slut and the falcon'!


Ashley Books are almost always better but I think the movie portrayed the book really well. The casting was amazing.


Scott The book is better, and sadder, but the movie is good too.


Tammy Ubilla This is a tough decision to make.. The book is amazing, and I really liked the movie as well. I loved the fact that Chbosky wrote the screen play for the movie. That is not something we get to see every day.
The actors did a great job playing the characters.
I consider it a tie.. =)


Nadia The book is better. i can picture almost every moment of it in my mind :)

Fai Ahmed THE MOVIE!


Samuel Alan Movie, i was hoping the book would end with the word Infinite like It was in the movie but in fact, i didn't like the book. Im sorry.


Alexis Both were super amazing, Chbosky is behind both, so there is absolutely no reason to complain. Not only did he write the screenplay, but he also directed it and I believe he had a pretty huge say in who was casted.


Isabella Book. Hands down. I didn't "connect" as much with the movie as I did with the book.


Estefania Anguamea both are good, but the movie doesnt explain too much about the other characters besides charlie, and i like the fact that at the end of the book most people got confused, i had to read it again to understand it

Both, I feel like while the movie stayed very close to the book it brought something different to the table which I really enjoyed. I usually prefer the books, but in this case I can't choose.
