I wish I’d read it before I saw the movie

I saw the movie first which may have been a mistake. I knew the big plot twists before reading so that kind of ruined it. However, I really liked the movie so I expected to still get really into the book, but for the most part I was just bored. It did at least answer some questions I thought the movie failed to address, at least, and you get a little more into Amy’s head (Book Amy is more frightening than Movie Amy).

Love it

this book is amazing, keeps you on your toes for sure

So amazing

If you're an avid reader and get kind of sick of predictable plots... look no further! I get kinda bored sometimes with typical plot lines. I could NOT predict what happens in this book - it caught be off guard TWICE. If you've seen the movie, i'm not sure how you'll like it. But if you haven't - definitely a book to read!

A little disappointed....

I thought this book was easy to keep reading-I will say that I looked forward to reading some each evening. However, I never really liked any of the characters (except maybe Go) and I found myself throughout the book not caring what happened to any of them. Still it was "ok" and I will pass it on to a friend.

good read

I couldn't put this book down, even though I like the end, it could have been more satisfying
