I really enjoyed this book. The cover is what drew me in, and discovering it was a Canadian story, and had been made into a movie, I immediately needed to know more. I watched the trailer and fell in love. Then read the book and realized the trailer lied. But I still loved the book! Now I'm just dying to watch the movie and see just how different they really are!
