I finished a book recently, as I crawled into bed, I sighed and said 'I miss them', to which my husband asked 'Who?' and I was forced to say the people in my book, they are real to me and after 11 novels they should be.
Based on the true story of Genie (Katie, in the movie) who was kept strapped to a potty-chair and locked inside a cage by her father. I learned about her in Psychology class and developed an interest in Feral Children.
No, I haven't read the book. But I fully intend to read "Life of Pi" before the movie comes out. The production value and casting sound interesting and of course the story alone sounds fascinating. I might just give it a try. At least it looks good
