I thought this book was quite good, compelling interesting and a very unusual story.
This book was hard to put down. The writing incredably good.
A bit of a twisted story and am looking very forward to seeing the movie to explain the missing knots in the twists.
This is really an interesting book. As usual, much better than the movie. It's both suspenseful, and humorous at the same time.
great book, awsome!
missed the movie but the book was terrific
