Day 19: Favorite Book Turned Into a Movie

I'm taking part of the 30 Day Book Challenge.  Click the link to do it too (and add your blog to my meme)!

My first choice is obvious.  The movies are *almost* as good as the books.  In fact, the movies stick to the books much better than most books-to-film productions.  The casting was phenomenal too.  I am currently re-reading the entire series in anticipation of the final movie:






My second choice is a book I read after I watched the movie.  The movie was so great that I had to read the book, and the book didn't disappoint!





And my final choice is a book-turned-movie that I am in love with.  I don't know what I like better--the book or the movie.  I've read the book twice.  I've watched the movie twice.  I'm about to reread and rewatch both for a third time.  If you haven't read it then you should (or at the very least you should watch the movie):

  1. I agree that the Harry Potter series DOES stick much closer to the book in the move adaptation than most book-to-movie productions. It's one of my favorites! The Lord of the Rings is also a WONDERFUL adaptation, if for no other reason than the effects and the visual is AWESOME!

    I haven't read or seen EatPrayLove. On my "to-do" list for sure!

  2. I forgot all about The Lord of the Rings! That is a really great book to movie adaptation.
