If you've watched the movie, you don't need to read the book. But I liked it still
Hated it. As soon as you might start to get into a character it switches to a new one, never to return. Braque and Jordy chapters were the worst. I pushed through and for what, the least satisfying ending of all time?
Love all the beautiful descriptive writing about food and places, nice entertaining story until Bernards character and stories jarred me out of my enjoyment. It was also much longer than necessary. The audiobook narrator was fantastic, definitely recommend going that route.
I didn't hate it, but I certainly didn't love it. It was very underwhelming and fairly inconsistent.
Spoilers
She's terrified of germs, specifically c. Diff. But has no problem sitting in a sewer?! What? Nonsense.
Also, the rich man leaving all his money to a lizard just abandoned his family to go and die in said sewer? Just the whole ending is preposterous. I was waiting for him to be hidden in a bunker down there since his company was the one to build it. Would have made so much more sense even if it has been predictable.
I thought I'd be able to read YA forever but maybe I'm wrong, thanks John Green
