book is better

This could be biased because I have read the book. I felt like it was severely lacking chemistry and it was insanely rushed. I personally thought Sally Throne's book itself was rushed, so imagine condensing that all into this 1.5 hour movie! Doesn't make sense. It was cute at times but not sure if I enjoyed the casting..Lucinda was way more casual than she was in the book and not as clumsy and funny, but I would say Lucy Hale did a good job. I don't like how they tried to recreate Thorne's decision to keep the location unknown by mixing in random shots of nyc and chicago - just could've kept it anonymous or chosen shots from various cities or just one! It's a cute watch i guess but not as fulfilling as the book.
