Oh I love the film, but I always expect more from a book. Things that spark my imagination. I felt like I was being spoon fed what to think and feel.

I'd not spotted that!

I thought it was dreadful, and after all the hype I was so disappointed as I wanted to enjoy it. I didn't warm to the main character either. I did finish as it was for book group, but it was hard going.

It was basically a poor version of It's a Wonderful Life.
