I read this book after watching the movie, so for anyone in that boat just know the book and movie are vastly different! But I have to say, I honestly think I like the movie better (which never happens) only because I’m probably too old to be reading/watching high school dramas (I’m 32 but can’t let go of my YA!) so the reason I like the movie was really for the comedy which was carried by Mae Whitman who plays Bianca, and the book wasn’t really that funny nor was Bianca’s character. What I did like about the book though was the more complex issues that Bianca was facing, and more characterization with Wesley, so for that I give it 3.5 stars! Overall, an entertaining read.
