one of the best books of any genre I have read - and I loved the movie too! I thought that the transition from book to screen was brilliantly done - the director did a great job of transferring long scenes to short moments (when the doors close on the garage full of cars for example) and the build up to the end was great (even if not factual but hey it was a movie!). The book is all the more inspiring when it is realised that the author was suffering from chronic fatigue at the time she wrote it.
