Book Review of Forrest Gump

Forrest Gump
Forrest Gump
Author: Winston Groom
Genre: Literature & Fiction
Book Type: Paperback

I personally didn't like the book nearly as much as the movie. There were stories in here that weren't explored in the movie and just seem so far "out-there" it's hard to keep going.... for me! Forrest is an Astronaut, he lives with Jenny for quite some time - he's a wrestler! It's an interesting deviation, but not quite my style!
