I haven't finished reading the book yet. I realise the irony in that.

If you have trouble letting people mention a movie, you're a part of the problem

If you have trouble spilling uninvited diagnosis for Internet strangers, start with yourself, yeah.

I have no issues with the author mentioning the film, not the book. I was rather curious why not the book, but the film, solely because of this ‘wood’ story told in both. The author said they haven’t finished the book yet, so that’s fine with me. I just find it ironic they did not mention the book (and the author too), considering the story it tells.
