Terms of Endearment by Larry McMurtry

3.0

I am having mixed feelings - this is one of those rare occasions where the book just doesn't quite live up to the movie. The book did an excellent job of painting a picture of Aurora and everything that she is, however, the movie carried a better storyline. Also, the absence of the "Astronaut" was greatly felt, as he added so much to the movie version of Terms of Endearment.
*SPOILER BELOW*
Even though the character of Emma wasn't too greatly developed, I still found myself crying over the scenes at the end. :(
