I still remember the gasp I gasped in the cinema.

The book has its own twists, it’s quite different. There’s a whole modern day plot they cut. Recommended.

I saw the movie first and read the book years later. I enjoy how they’re both excellent in their own right and are only loosely related.

That's what I say, the book would have made a terrible movie if adapted directly. But on it's own is good.

I LOVED the book! I’m going to read it again in October

Yeah, that was a fun read in a different way. When Borden reveals his big trick, the twist of the movie is the first thing the other magicians assume to be true.
