I wasn't interested in reading the book when it came out, but once I saw the movie trailer, I had to check out the book. I'm a little over halfway done with it right now, and I'm definitely more impressed than I thought I'd be. Generally I don't like books with main characters who are that young [I think he's 12. ] but the characters are pretty mature for how young they are, and the plot definitely keeps me interested. I'm looking forward to finishing it soon so I can see the movie. =DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8478559233817987862.post-6353416196401319202010-02-20T22:09:34.353-06:002010-02-20T22:09:34.353-06:00Read it - loved it.
