Okay, usually the book is almost always better than the movie (in my opinion), but not this time. I don’t actually think this book was bad necessarily, it was honestly pretty okay, but compared to the movie, it’s just not as good. In the movie, Elle’s character was much better and the overall energy of the movie was just better. It was more enjoyable. Compared to that, the book is pretty bland. So, if you’re planning to read this instead of watching the movie, don’t bother. The movie is better.
