Title: Watch the movie, instead
Review: Having come off of reading Maltese Falcon and watching the Thin Man movie, I had high expectations for the book. Unfortunately I found it extremely dull, and the characters Nick and Nora, who are so vibrant and alive on screen, are two dimensional alcoholic drips on paper. It took a lot of time to get through this book, and in the end, I didn't care what happened. Although the movie doesn't have much of a plot, it is far more entertaining than the book.
