In reply to JaneGS. Yeah Jane, I think you will like The Girl on the Train movie if you liked the book. Check it out when it gets on NetFlix. You might also like Siracusa as it's a bit of a thriller too. Thanks for stopping by.

I like the premise of Siracusa, though you are right, not a Meg Ryan movie scenario! I will have to look for it. Not sure I want cynical but families traveling in Italy is appealing.

I was looking forward to Girl on the Train as I really liked the book–then I read some ho-hum reviews, and decided not to go. Now, I’m wishing I had…guess I wait for it on NetFlix. Just seeing the train running along the Hudson River would make it worthwhile!

In reply to bermudaonion (Kathy). Hi Kathy: Yeah I think my husband understood the movie okay without having read the book, but I think it does add something if you have read it; it helps. I figured some guys would be seeing it. Good to know!

I haven’t read Siracusa but I’d like to. I liked The Girl on the Train but wondered if people who hadn’t read the book would understand it. There were men in the theater when I saw it.

In reply to Shannon @ River City Reading. Shannon: You should just go see the movie! Exactly like the book - except for the setting. Go for it, ha! fun chick thriller.

I still haven’t read The Girl on the Train and I’ve somehow managed to avoid spoilers so far, so I may just go out and see the movie before the book on this one (gasp!).

In reply to The Reader's Tales. Thanks RT. I hadn't heard of the city of Siracusa before this book, but then I haven't been to Sicily either. Have you? You're my go-to travel expert. :-)

In reply to Carmen. Uh oh Carmen. The great movies dried up eh? That's no fun. Amy in Gone Girl was pretty over the top sinister; perhaps you'll like The Girl on the Train better when it's on rental. It's not great but it's okay as a chick thriller b/c of Emily Blunt. Enjoy your week.

In reply to Molly. Ha ha Molly. Just don't tell your husband it's a chick flick thriller and you might be able to get him there. Emily Blunt is worth seeing in this role!
