Well written, readable book about an interesting, flawed protagonist. I read without seeing the movie. Towards the end, there is a giant plot cliche (you'll know it when you see it) and then a realistic but ugly (and frustrating) ending. I don't feel like I wasted my time reading this book, but I enjoyed putting it down more than picking it up.
