I read it as a freshman in high school and reread it before seeing the film. Just the perfect, earnest coming-of-age story.

Now I think I would like to read the book first, and then see the movie, because the epistolary format of the book really entices me, and you also mentioned that the casting was perfect. It would be interesting to see what I think if I did it in the reverse order.Zibileehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07443338685890187334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4124681312732868654.post-21637231114561659762013-03-05T13:09:42.120-05:002013-03-05T13:09:42.120-05:00Haven't seen the film but the book was wonderf...Haven't seen the film but the book was wonderful. I feel so silly too because this gal in our book club for YEARS tried to get us to read it. She kept pitching it and we kept shooting it down.
