BookLender review by merri on 2007-06-14 01:07:11

I never saw the movie because I always thought it would be better to read the book. I read the book cuz they made such a big deal outa the movie (yes books can be on my reading list for a LONG TIME!). this was boring. Maybe if I had read mrs Dalloway by Virginia woolf, the book that ties it all together, it would have been more interesting. I got through the whole thing and there wasn�t much point. Except for the fact that all the women wanted to sleep with other women. Yes, im aware that there were more weighty, important points but I guess I have sex on the mind.
