She's very correct about the plot differences (i.e. Lily's character) and the ending. It was anticlimactic at best. The ending has you feeling sad for Miranda. Still very enjoyable movie.

Meryl Streep made a wonderful Miranda. I can't imagine anyone else having done the role its justice.

I guess I need to go out and buy the book (don't have me check things out from the library, I have books in my apartment that I checked out in March). I thought the movie was good, but if the book was really different with more plot points, than I wanna read it.

Xylochick216 & SATX*APhi: Could one of you please pm me and tell me the difference between the movie and book version of In Her Shoes. I own the movie and I love the movie, but I haven't read the book and I'm dying to know the differences that y'all are talking about.
