  • Print to film

    I find myself guilty of using the sometimes annoying phrase, “The book is so much better”. What are some of your favorite book to movie adaptations of all time? Any that you feel were even better than the book or just as good? Any movies weren’t as good as the book, but still really good? Any that you were looking forward to but extremely disappointed with? One that comes to mind for me is “The Giver”. It was one of my favorite books growing up, and the movie was so disappointing.

  • Have you ever read a book because of a movie or TV adaptation?

    I watched the first two Hunger Games movies in the cinema and couldn’t wait for the final film, so I decided to read the third book in the trilogy. There were quite a few differences between the book and the movie, which made me curious enough to go back and read the first two books as well. And I’m glad I did! I like the film adaptations, but I love the books.

  • What's a book you really liked but refuse to reread for memory's sake?

    I read Enchantment by Orson Scott Card waaaaay waaaaay back my early teenage years and really liked it. I refuse to reread it as my opinion of it might change. I'd like to keep it in the 'a book I really liked' category because memories of reading the book comes with memories of a good summer vacation.
