I watched the movie based on this
book a few months ago (before I read the book—I know! Gasp! ;) ) and I’ll say
that the book is so much better than the movie! So, so great and I really
enjoyed comparing the two and how clean it was.
See y’all on Monday with a new
review!
*BFCG may (Read the review to see) recommend this book by this author. It does not mean I recommend all the books by this author.
