Has anyone ever read the book by Fannie Flagg known as Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Top Cafe? I have to read it for my English clas. I have seen the movie, an I was wondering if the movie is better than the book, or is the book better than the movie. What are your guys opinions, and what are your opinions of the book if you have read it?

I have read the book, though it's been a while, and I have seen the movie, many times. As with any book that becomes a movie, there are going to be differences. There is more room for details in a book which have to be cut out for a 2 hour movie. The other thing about the book, there is actually a recipe included for fried green tomatoes. If you have never tried them they are really good. The hard part is finding anyone that will give up their tomatoes before they are ripe lol
