boovies. (book + movie)

how do you feel about books being made into movies?

i do not like going to see a movie, and then after watching it realizing that it was a book first, and knowing that it would have been a book i would have particularly enjoyed. i refuse to read a book after i have watched the movie because why waste all the time it takes to read a book when you already know what is going to happen? HOWEVER, i enjoy reading a book and then after i am finished, be able to put all of my imaginative characters into a movie character, see how they are really supposed to be portrayed other then how i thought them up in my own mind. of course the movies are NEVER as good as the book, and it is always frustrating when they change things around and leave out things that you remember from the story but it is always fun to see if maybe you missed something that they put in the movie.

i just have been reading a lot lately since i purchased my barnes and noble nook (which i am obsessed with) and almost every book i have read is in the process of turning into a movie.

i read the hunger games series, i cant wait til that comes out in theaters!
i read water for elephants, this movie came out as soon as i finished the book. (perfect timing?) i think so!
i read the help, which will be on the big screen early august.

and i have read a few other books which are not movies and i haven't seen anything for them to become movies any time soon. which is totally fine!

i dont even really know the meaning of this post i just kinda wanted a moment to ramble about something random. :)
