The first time I read this book, I was... oh, about ten or twelve. It came in a large pile of five-cent books at a flea market and was missing both the covers, so I had no idea what I was getting into when I opened it.

I gave this a three star rating simply because Brooks kept very close to the movie. This is a good thing of course, but I think he may have done so to a fault. Sure, he added a bit more of the internal emotions and motivations of the character, but there isn't much to say other than that. It followed the movie...
