Actually, I made it to
Select to view spoiler:
when Book dies.
And have decided to hold off on the rest.
It's KRAD's fault for being such a great author!
I was halfway through before I knew it. He does a great job of capturing everyone's character.
I'm going to have to pick up one of his other books to hold me over until next month.

Be strong! I can't tell you how many spoilers I've wanted to highlight but I haven't and I won't! I think you'll nejoy the movie a lot more if its new and a surprise no?

Wait for the movie. The novel will ruin the surprise of some of the best scenes in the movie. See the movie then read the book. Trust me.

If you're doing your best to stay spoiler free, in your attempt to see the BDM with "fresh" eyes, then I would obviously suggest that you don't read it.
However....
If you're not afraid of knowing what's going to happen, I highly suggest to give it a read. It only made me want to see the BDM even more. It's a very well written book, and probably contains things that won't make it into the final cut of the film.
