Should have read this sooner

5 stars

I have no idea why it took me so long to read this book. I really enjoyed the movie, and this book is a deeper, more thoughtful version of that movie. Not only that, but I loved every page of it.

Some parts are a bit preachy, but I happily ignored those parts because the rest is so gripping.
