I actually downloaded this as part of Apples iTunes 12 days the year before last (2010), but only got round to reading it recently when I saw the trailer for the movie, and realized it was still outstanding. I'm going to sum up my impression in 5 words: "I wish I hadn't bothered".

The reason for that is not so much in the style of writing (first person, flows well enough) but simply that nothing seems to happen for the entire book - it never gripped me; never made me want to read just another chapter to see what would happen next. In short, I found it to be lacking any kind of grip at all.
