A Book a Week – The Descendants

I have a rule about reading the book before I watch the movie so when I saw the previews for The Descendants I knew I had to read the book first. Especially since it got good reviews.

And I am so glad I did.

It was a fast read but also a great read. A rare combination in my opinion. I loved the characters and the story. Now I can’t wait to actually see the movie. I hope it won’t disappoint after such a lovely book.

I am looking forward to reading more of this author.

    I have not read the book but I have seen the movie. I thought it was a great story and very well done. I really thought George Clooney should have gotten the Best Actor Oscar for his role. And the music is incredible for the movie. They have some of the best Hawaiian musicians on the sound track.

    I didn’t even realize it was from a book! And I haven’t seen it yet, so now I’m checking the library to see if they have the book first. I’m glad to hear it was a good read. Am always looking for those (especially fast, good reads :D). Thanks for the recommendation!
