Hi, I wonder if this story is what the movie of the same name is based on. I
wonder if it is better then the book? It seemed to be a popular movie so
maybe it is better then you found the book. Of course as I was saying to
someone today they don't always follow the book totally when they make the
movie. A good example of this is my sister's keeper, in the movie they
changed which sister died in the end which totally ruined it for me and I
felt that it wasn't as good because of this change.
Interested in others thoughts.
From Shaz.
