Safe Haven! I just watched that movie. I really liked it - possibly because I thought there was murder. Haha. Don't know if I'd like the book though.
The book's pretty good, for Nicholas Sparks ;) It brings you right into the psychopath's mind (those were my favourite chapters! forget all that mushy stuff)

Francesca wrote: "I love The Princess Bride! Let me know when you're done! It's so different from the movie, eh?"I really liked it! And to be honest, although there was MUCH more detail in the book, I found it followed the movie pretty closely. Much of the dialogue was word for word the same as in the movie.
Haha. That's true - there were a couple of parts that I really liked from the book that weren't in the movie though. ((said every book nerd ever)).
