I am a reader. I read all the time. But I had been putting off for years reading the Forrest Gump novel as I knew it wasn't as happy as the movie. But last week I decided to read it as I couldn't find another thing to read. I was really disapointed as I knew I would be but usually I am disapointed at the way the movie doesn't do justice for a book this time was diffrent I must say I like the movie a lot better then the book.

It is a turn-around. I've seen the movie and I have to book but havent read it yet, now I may not even bother.
What was it that you didn't like?


myLot reputation of 97/100. Apriljess (555)  2 months ago

Hi thanks for responding.I don't like the book because Forrest doesn't get to marry Jenny and he has no relationship with little Forrest what so ever. Compared to the movie its just sad.

Oh, that's NO GOOD, it makes the entire Jenny storyline pointless.
Don't think I'll like that.
Usually I like to read a book first, but that didn't happen here. Don't know if I'm ever going to read it now.
Thanks for the heads-up, I hate to be disappointed in a book.

How many of you have read the novel Forrest Gump?

I'm reading this great work by Winston Groom currently. I think it's entirely different from the movie adapted from it except for the plot. The book is mainly ironic while the movie reflects the...

Funny

This movie was on again last night. I usually watch it when it comes on, not only because it is one of Tom Hanks' best performances of his career, but also because it brings back some memories for...
