Reviewed by valentinoSince I had seen the Frank Darabont film, I knew everything about this book. And while there were no surprises, I enjoyed this a whole lot. A great book. But, the film might be one of the cases in which the adaptation is better than the book. The ending in particular. I’m not gonna spoil anything, but they changed the ending for the film and it might very well be one of the best endings of all time!
