    Finally! One that I've already read. That gives me a chance to catch up on things. I'll wait until others post before saying anything about the book. I watched the movie on Lifetime that was based on this book. It stars Kristen Stewart. I don't like her but the role suited her. She tends to act a little weird.

    I thought it was a decent book. It actually helped that I had seen the movie ahead of time. Otherwise, some parts of it would have been a little confusing. Or maybe, taking the time to picture the people playing the parts was what the problem was! Who knows! I've read a few teen books this year and a lot of them have the molestation/rape theme. Not sure if that is just a sign of the times or what. Either way it's depressing.

    So far with this book club I have enjoyed the Night Circus the most and that's one I never would have read without this book club. So keep them coming! :happy:

    I agree!

    I am not sure what it was but I didn't care for this one (Speak). It was just ok.
