Just finished it. If you enjoyed the movie, I highly recommend the novel too.

My favorite movieā€™s screenplay was inspired by a book that I donā€™t like. I donā€™t find it to be a good book in the slightest. But alas, without it, whoā€™s to say the movie wouldā€™ve been made. I suppose Iā€™ll offer the bookā€™s dead author my thanks still, seeing as Iā€™d appreciate the same if it were me.

Iain Reid wrote the novel I'm Thinking of Ending Things, which Charlie Kaufman then adapted into a fantastic film for Netflix. Since then, I've kept tabs on Reid's next two novels -- both of which were immediately optioned (with Reid co-writing the adaptations). Foe is set for release after its festival run, and though I haven't had a chance to see it yet, I can confirm the novel is a mysterious and suspenseful sci-fi noir with subtle futuristic elements and a thought-provoking central theme that even transcends the setting.
