Differences and similarities about the movie and the book.

The differences about the book and the movie is that in the movie gives away what happened so quickly and gives flashbacks so quick, in the book is more difficult to find out. Another thing, is that in the book Andy Evans tries to rape Melinda whereas in the book he only screams at her and tries to hit her. In the book says that Melinda writes in the bathroom about Andy Evans, but in the film she writes that ''Exhange students ruining the students''. Melinda meets Heather in the School bus in the film and in the book she meets her in the auditorium. Also, Ivy doesn't speak a lot to Melinda whereas in the book they talked a lot like best friends were they used to be. Finally, In the book, Melinda hears about Rachel and Andy's breakup happening at prom, whereas in the movie, Rachel breaks up with Andy outside of his car.

The similarities are that have most of the same narrations and same lines of acting. It takes place in the same high school. Talks about her raped by Andy Evans and how she was drunk, he was also drunk. In my conclusion, there's way more differences than in similarities.
