My boots feel a little heavier having watched the movie before I read this book :( The book was pretty good, so many quotable lines in it! I loved that you got to know the Grandmother better in the book than you did in the movie. It just stinks going into a book knowing what's going to happen, it takes something away from it. It's not the books fault, it's completely my own. Next time I'll hold out and wait until I have read the book, or at least I'll try really hard to!
