I adored this book! i read it a couple years ago - did you see the movie? i hope it does it justice. I think what amazed me most about it was that it was written by a man, for some reason, that just really made me more impressed. It's an awesome love story too...i think i shall read this again. :)

No, I haven't seen the movie yet but judging from the previews I really don't think it will do it much justice at all.
Is it out in theatres yet?
I've only seen one preview and haven't heard anything about it since.

I have never read this book but when I worked at an online INDIGO warehouse 5 or 6 years ago I certainly picked a lot of them to ship out. Now that I know Zhang Ziyi is the lead it interests me more.

People that have read it do seem to rave about it.

Don't fret, I understand.
But if you ever want to post about a lovely book you have read in the past that would be lovely... or perhaps lurk it to comment on books other people have enjoyed!
