Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt star in a slick romantic adventure comedy in the vein of True Lies and Prizzi's Honor. After winning free sessions with a marriage counsellor as a grab-bag gift at a suburban holiday party, a young couple discovers that they're in a dead-end marriage. But that's not all they discover - unbeknown to the other, each spouse is a covert assassin working at a rival agency, and their next assignment is to kill each other This book tells their wild story as each confides it to their therapist.
I enjoyed reading this book more than other books I have read. It was very similar to the movie, which in a way was a good thing. I like how they added lots of comedy twists with the story. The only thing that stopped me from giving this 5 stars is how it was written. I don't like how they broke the chapters up into who was telling the story. It would have been a lot easier to read if the story was told in just one point of view. I would recommend anyone to read this book.

This was a great action packed book. It moved quickly and was very exciting. I enjoyed it very much. I saw the movie afterwards and it was a huuuuuuuuge disapointment. My advice: read the book, don't see the movie!!

TOTALLY CAPTIVATING
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Believe me once you pick the book up, you can't possible put it down. It took me only 1 day and a half to finish this hard-hitting book. It makes you want to see the movie just to see if the events from the book are in there. For those who know absolutely nothing about this book or plot, let me fill you a little bit. Mr. and Mrs. Smith are world-class, head-strong deadly assassins, and in the midst of them meeting each other and getting married, they keep this secret totally hidden. Well, until now. You see they were sent after the same target and in the mix of it all, they start to attack each other. SO pretty much, they find out that the person that tried to kill them was there lover and the whole novel is them pretty much trying to settle the dispute. I hope this was helpful, and happy reading --REMEMBER THE MOVIE COMES OUT JUNE 10, 2005!
