The Verity movie press tour is everywhere — book first or movie first?
samhustles asked
Okay I need someone to settle this. The press tour with Anne Hathaway and Josh Hartnett is all over my feed this week and now I want to see the movie, but everyone says the Colleen Hoover book has a twist you cannot un-see. I have never read the book. Do I read it first so the twists hit, or go in fresh so the movie can surprise me? Genuinely torn.

- Read the book first, the twist is the whole point.
I made this mistake with another Hoover adaptation — watched first, and the ending landed like nothing. Verity is a thriller, and the book's final chapter is the part everyone argues about online. If you see the movie first you will never get that experience. The book is a fast read, like one weekend. Read it, argue about the ending, then go enjoy the press-tour movie with your theory locked in.
