There were just so many flashbacks and it seemed like the plot was lacking a little- nothing connected the way that I wanted it to. I think I might still read the book, though and fill in the gaps for myself.Kaity B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11121029548598878286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7055531662616520992.post-74243700047305347892015-07-15T15:14:08.541-04:002015-07-15T15:14:08.541-04:00This is on my redbox list!

I thought Reece Witherspoon did an amazing job in the movie too. I'm not a huge camping fan unless it's in a cabin or something with running water and electricity so while I was listening/watching I was thinking, "Yeah no. Just no!" lolKathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09447616252925781889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7055531662616520992.post-23828191601628363992015-07-15T09:57:53.476-04:002015-07-15T09:57:53.476-04:00You are reminding me I need to see the movie!!
