In response to In response to 0

          

An excellent read. I couldn't get into Drown, but this one had my attention from the beginning.

Reading it made me wish I spoke spanish because at some points i felt like i was missing something, but eventually i caught on to the meaning of the spanish words.

I don't know if i would want to see a movie. The book is a little to painful and uncomfortable to see on the screen.
