I usually have a general rule to not read a film adapted book so soon after having watched the movie. I feel cheap and cheated by enjoying the hollywood-fed adaption and then reading something that is clearly better but unable to enjoy because I find myself unintentionally frustrated that it doesnt follow "the movie" because the movie was "so good". Waiting several months for it to become a spotty memory helps. Which is why the Harry Potter books have sat untouched on my shelf for years now.

Because of this, I'm finding it hard to get into the book. I dont feel connected with it. Though Im halfway through it and seriously debating putting it down and revisit it when I've forgotten the movie.
