Even though the book is better than the movie‚ I actually really enjoyed the movie and found it extremely interesting. It all begins with the memories from the past were being erased and a boundary being set to keep the memories away. Everyday everyone would mandatorily have to get injected even though they didn’t know why‚ they would happen because they found to
