Enjoyed reading the book better then the movie. Gives a feel of the time period for me.

I actually saw the movie for this before I got the book. But i much preferred the book to the movie. It is really well written and the story itself is so captivating. I just really love it

A well-written book. Even though most of the readers I assume did not know the places, the way it has written made the places very "visual" to the readers. I found this book very interesting and it is very enjoyable to read it

One of the best books i've ever read! This story is incredibly engaging and detailed, and really gives you a sense of another life. The imagery in these pages will take your breath away. Truly an amazing story.

I loved this book so much I not only keep 2 copies of it, I also bought one for my mom and both my sisters. definitely a keeper!

This was a wonderful book. I have never seen the movie but from what I've heard, the book is much better. Loved it and passed the book along to others to read.

Beautifully written, heartbreaking and captivating. I loved this book, and the movie is also excellent. What an amazingly beautiful and tragic story. A .

I loved this book!

I read it within a few nights. If I had the choice, I wouldn't have put it down. It created a vivid, and beautiful story in my mind - and I couldn't wait to see the movie. Although the movie was excellent, the book was better!

Highly recommended.

I read this book years ago and loved it. Every time I see the cover I remember how much I enjoyed the book.
Book is old now so if you have not read it yet you can get a used copy at a great price.

I absolutely loved this book, and would strongly recommend it to anyone. Read before you watch the movie because in my opinion the movie is completely another review and score. Once you read the first page you wont want to put it down but you wont want it to end either. A great read!
