When i first found out that i had to read "Where The Heart Is", i wasn't too thrilled. I've seen the movie and loved it, but I knew the book would be completely different.

After reading the first two chapters of the book i realized the book will be as great as the movie or better. The author goes into detail about every situation. The book not only has the character's deal with poverty, love, and overcoming things but also about dealing with not having a family and being pregneant at such a young age.

In conclusion, this is a great book, but like i predicted it wasn't as great as the movie.
