It's a good book and I can understand why people enjoy it. I initially read this book so I could see the movie come out in November. All I can say is that it was very underwhelming for me. I wanted there for me to be done in this book and I felt like more could have been done. there is a lot of telling and not showing which is annoying. The interesting parts were always gone over quickly, it would have probably been a lot more beneficial for the book to drag those parts out, so we could feel the grittiness of them. Nonetheless, I am super excited about the movie. It has my 2 favourite actors and I am excited to see how the director takes on the book
