As usual, the book was better, but I liked the ending of the movie better than the book. I was surprised to find Cameron Diaz pretty good as the mother. (Jodi Picoult did not think Diaz was a good pick.) Jesse was not fully developed in the movie. There are scenes of him going downtown, but we don't exactly know what he was up to. As well, the father wasn't as developed as in the book. I don't mind that they took out the love story with the lawyer because usually movie adaptations focus too much on that aspect from the book. Overall, pretty good, with decent acting.
