I swore off fiction for a couple months because of the end of that book. It made me so mad.
Quote:I didn't read the book(TFIOS), but in the movie there's a scene that is a definite "tell". I don't remember it exactly, but they played it too heavy in the other direction. Sort of like a magician'a assistant saying "Look over here." Having said that, it didn't detract at all.
You referring to the ending?
Quote:There are two things that I loved about the TFIOS movie and these are things I thought set it apart and above similar offerings:
I agree with #1, it was well written in that regard. Very well handled.
I also admit that while I wasn't blown away by TFIOS, I did cry, which I didn't do with My Sister's Keeper. I was too pissed to cry at that book.
