Marley and Me

Ok so I read the book Marley and Me... I originally became interrested in it a few years back when it first came out... There was this house I would help my mom clean and on the kitchen counter was this book... so one day while I was waiting for my mom to finish up I opened the book and began reading it... Everytime we would go to that house I would read little bits of it... Well we eventually stopped cleaning that house and I couldn't continue to read it... I would see it at the stores but never bought it... Eventually forgetting about it...At the beginning of December I came across the book again and saw that it was going to be a movie... I figured it was time to buy the book, it took me longer than expected to read, my goal was to finish reading it by Christmas because thats when the movie was due out... well I finished it about a week ago and I can honestly say it's been one of the best book I have read... Its very moving and sad(yes the book made me cry)... Well I just came back from watching the movie today, But I can honestly say that I've never had this happend to me... The book was better than the movie... That being said, the movie was really good, I love Jennifer Aniston and I will practicaly see any movie she is in... But besides that, just seeing the book come to life was awsome... It doesn't matter if you are and animal lover or not... This is a really good book, I recomend it to anyone!

I also just started reading John Grogan's latest book... I will update you how this book was when I am done with it...
