A wonderful read! Until recently, I had no idea that this movie inspired the film. The novel is proof that the book is usually better than the movie...and I liked the movie!
2.5 stars.
Disappointing at the end.
The book contains zero suspense (I don't mean this as a bad thing). The crime happens in the first chapter. We as readers know everything (who, why, and how) and we will be seeing how the good guys try to figure it out and how they bring the culprits to justice. It is interesting partially( bcoz we already know what happened). The thing that annoyed me at the end was that the author keeps making things tougher for the good guys, and I was very intrigued by how the lead character gets out of it and brings justice. But, the author took an easy way out, and it was done in a very lame way.
