Lucky for me I've forgotten who the killer is. Read it some time ago and enjoyed it but the movie is getting panned big time. Disappointing.

I gave that book 1 star and won't be seeing the movie anytime soon.

I'm with you. I was sorry I read it...not one likeable character in the book. (It has such an intriguing title, too; what a disappointment.)

I did not like the book at all. I was excited to read it because of all of the positive hype, but I was very disappointed. I'm not sure if I will see the movie. I will likely wait until it is at Redbox.

I loved the book but am not sure how that will translate into a movie. So much of the book is Rachel's inner monologue.

I started the book but could not get past the first chapter. The second looked even worse so I returned it to the library. Who decides which books become movies? They need a better picker.

I wasn't aware that there is a second book? Could you share the name of it? Thanks!

Usually when a book, like this one, is on the bestseller list for months and sells millions of copies and people are talking about it, that makes it a pretty good candidate.

I got confused by that too. But now I see she meant the second chapter. There is no second book.
