5.0 out of 5 stars A Must for Fans of the Movie..., August 27, 2000
By 
M. Bandy (Champaign, IL USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: A Life Less Ordinary (Paperback)
If you liked the movie, you owe it to yourself to read the novelization. You learn considerably more about all the characters, and the writing style is quite amusing. If you're wondering what Celine was thinking when Robert stormed into her father's office, or even how Robert got past security, your questions will be answered here. A very pleasant read for an idle afternoon.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Movie Novelization Ever, July 18, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: A Life Less Ordinary (Paperback)
This book is almost better than the film. It's written by the screenwriter, so the characters are fully developed and there are lots of scenes deleted from the film. Much better than the average novelization and a fun read, even if you haven't seen the film. Very quirky.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very entertaining - better than the movie, November 21, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: A Life Less Ordinary (Paperback)
I read this during a long airplane flight to Japan. It's much better than the movie. More background is given & the characters are better developed here. It's a nice little book - nothing too deep here, but a delight to read nevertheless.
