- In the book, Melinda wards off Andy using a scrap of glass from a broken mirror, whereas in the film, she fights him off by spraying him in the eyes with an aerosol can. -- Differences from the Novel
- Having just watched the film I can recall she blinded him with cleaning fluid, knees/kicks him in the groin and then puts a fragment of mirror to his neck. Don't know what happens in the book but the preceding bit about the film is wrong so I moved it here so that maybe someone familiar with the novel can add back in the correct version -- Horkana (talk) 06:22, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
- The glass part is the same in the book as it is in the film: she breaks a mirror and holds a piece of it to Andy's neck. The only difference is that in the movie, she also sprays something in his eyes. Andrea (talk) 16:03, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

February 2018 copy edit
[edit]NeoBatfreak and interested parties: I finished copy edit on the article. Here are my notes:
- Firstly, I did not copy edit the section "Differences from the novel" which looks to me like an unsourced list of trivia. If someone would like to source it and establish the notability of the changes in the adaptation, give me a ping and I'll try to come back to copy edit it.
- The Plot section ends with
Although it becomes clear that Melinda will need time to fully recover from her ordeals, this is a significant and empowering event in her life, as she finally finds the courage to speak.
which sounds like commentary (unless this is stated in voiceover, etc.) and might be seen as original research. Plot sections should generally just report what happened without any opinions. - In the infobox, there's
Based on Novel: Laurie Halse Anderson
. I changed this with the template {{based on}}, which I feel gives a more-standardized format.
If you have any questions or comments, please post them here. Thanks! – Reidgreg (talk) 15:39, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
