This is the movie that everyone is talking about! It was a best-seller book made into a BIG Hollywood movie! It is also stirring up a bit of controversy because of some religious stuff about the movie. I am interested in the movie so I am reading the book now. I am lucky because my student lent me the book. It is the first novel I have read in a very long time...The book is entertaining so far. I was really looking forward to seeing the movie too, but another student saw the movie and said it was terrible..."Like a cheap mystery movie". Now I don`t have any desire to see the movie, but I want to finish the book.
