Let me be clear. 'The Good Father' isn't a handbook on how to assassinate the president.
A novel is a relationship, you know? When you read a book, the writer has done half the work, and you're doing half the work. You're providing the imagination, the words are turning into pictures in your mind, there's an active relationship that's going on.
There's still nothing like a book to really make you feel like you've disappeared into a world.
In a book you can really talk about ideas and themes and characters in a deeper way than you can even on the screen.
