Please help me understand some of these questions!

What are Sutters true feelings about Aimee? Is she just a "rebound" girl all along? He makes it seem that way with his attraction to Cassidy all the way from watching her dance to sitting on the bleachers at graduation. Also why was Aimee so in love with him, what attracted her to him so deeply? I would have liked for them to show their relationship grow and develop more. They didn't even talk about the accident... Woodley was amazing too bad she signed on for divergent, I wanted to see her in a variety of different films and not take the Jennifer Lawrence path... regardless she is amazing!

Yes. The book has a more clearly defined ending.

I liked the movie better.

Aimee seemed to have low self-esteem, and really attached herself to Sutter in a borderline obsessive way. It was weird, because I wasn't sure how the filmmakers intended us to see this.
