The only reason I give this book a 7 is because it takes too long to get going. Once it does, it just don't stop. At first I thought there was no way I was going to read this book because it was too slow. BELIEVE ME IT AIN'T SLOW! If you saw the movie and didn't read the book, you got gipped. The movie sucked and was not worthy of the title. Read the book. That's all I gotta say about that... P.S. If you thought the movie was a massacre, just wait til you read this!
