This was SOO much better than I'd expected. Never seen the film so I came in completely blind.

although i did figure out the split personality within the first 1/3rd of the book, but I knew there was some big twist & I'm used to reading literary fiction, analysing and questioning as I read. I wondered for most of the book if Marla was a 3rd personality.The more I think about it since finishing, the better I think it was, the writing and the story. My rating goes up each day that passes. Is it even a 5 * maybe? I think its one of those books that is taken for granted due to its cultural impact. And it got me out of a big reading slump - tried about 4 books I DNF'ed then read this within 24 hours!
