I really liked that book too, very creepy. Have you seen the movie? I didn’t think it was bad. It’s actually why I read the book, lol.
I didn’t know there was a movie!!!!!! Have to see it!
Yes! I’d definitely recommend. It’s not perfect but I personally really liked it, lol.
I thought it was weird they flipped the characters names in the movie but I liked both!
Just looked it up. Why with the Ben Stiller? I didn’t look far enough to see what character he plays but I can only imagine. I’ll watch it though, because, ya know….now I have to. HAHA
I think it’s a different one! He’s not in the one I am thinking of. The 4 friends on vacation together?
I think that must be a different movie lol: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0963794/
This is the one based on the Scott Smith book.
@Allyson ummm there might be 2 movies?? https://m.imdb.com/title/tt0963794/ I’m avoiding spoilers so didn’t dig too far…
Ohhh I see. Ben Stiller was a producer for the film but not an actor. Lol, probably would have been a very different movie if he was.
No joke.
I read it years back, but I wasn’t a fan. I think the plant-thing just isn’t my schtick. I’m glad to hear you’re enjoying it, though! ?
@Lisa it’s more the ominous feeling of it than the plant itself. When it starts mimicking them though… ???
@Laura For sure. I do remember THAT being pretty effective.
I read it a long time ago. I liked it really good as well.
Loved it!! I had seen the movie years ago and read the book last year. They changed a bit of it from what I remember of the movie, but i thought both were great!!!
I liked the book. I thought it was creepy as well.
Loved the book, couldn’t put it down
Very good.
I read it right as we were leaving for a similar vacation! It’s really good.
So creepy
Just finished it. Holy shit. I don’t think I will ever forget this book.
I read it last year. I really enjoyed it but unfortunately I saw the movie when it came out so I knew the overall plot. I still loved the book though. Even bought it in my audible account.
I just watched the movie. Blech. If I had watched the movie first I don’t think I ever would have read it. The vines barely played a role because it all happened too fast and the character switching was annoying. Oh well. I LOVED the book. ?
