Likely. I read it and can't wait for the movie. Would really like to discuss the ending w someone though.

(SPOILERS)










I know this is what everyone says, but ending was meh. I've heard both that the movie re-wrote it and that it's pretty similar. Not sure I want to know before I see it.

Just dropping in to say that I absolutely loved the ending of the book. It was awesomely sinister. I have no idea why some people don't like it.

The ending pissed me off. Can't wait to see the new ending for the movie.

Just read the whole book over past 24 hours. I hadn't even heard about it until last week, but I'm a sucker for book-movie adaptations because I like to see "my book imagination" come to life on the big screen and compare.

What a ride! So glad I picked this one up. I can only imagine the ending was left open to allow for a sequel. She would miss out on too much money to kill her off or put her in jail. After the movie, people will want to see more and will pay more to see their f'ed relationship. If they do the movie right people will want to hate Amy more.

Affleck was made for this role. Perfect casting. I'm not sure this Brit girl can pull off the psycho but I'm going to pay to find out.

If I were the author, I would print book 2 "amazing"... Then I would print book 3 Psycho Bitch....then book 4 could be from kid born onwards....$$$$$

Rosumund Pike should win Best Actress for this role.

Ben should definitely get nominated, if not win himself.

They were just awesome.

Tyler Perry was even great in this movie. That's how great the movie is.

So I finished the book today and we're going to go out this weekend and see it.

My wife wanted me to know how it made me feel at the end. I said a little depressed and broken inside, but a great read. She then asked me to spoil it and after arguing about it, I did.

She said "that's the most depressing thing I've ever heard and I will not see that with you."
