I love Dead Poets Society (it’s my favorite movie) and this should be a 5 star book, but I had to give it a 4. The author added two scenes that were weird, unnecessary, and not in the movie. First, when Knox went to the party with Chris and groped her boob while she was kissing Chet and then where Mr. Keating showed a group of his teenaged students softcore porn??? It was so bizarre that the author decided to add those scenes and I had to take a star off for that. Will definitely read again but will skip those scenes since they add nothing to the plot.

Other than those two scenes, I still love the plot and the characters. I definitely feel like this story is best as a movie, but it still gets the message through as a novel.
