it's so bad. I'm disappointed especially since the book is one of my favorites. The adaptation made the storyline seem dull and meaningless. like the sequence. the characters were not well defined. America and Shepley had so little role in the movie, which was the opposite in the novel. the movie took a path to be a comedy but the book was somehow darker which made it perfect. the novel was ruined for me. and the changes weren't even good. Travis and Abby's characters were not well shaped and there were certain things missing. their love story in the movie was so bad and had no real development. WORST ADAPTATION EVER!
