Book Blogger Hop

Book Blogger Hop is hosted by Crazy for Books and is a place just for book bloggers and readers to connect and share our love of the written word! This weekly BOOK PARTY is an awesome opportunity for book bloggers to connect with other book lovers, make new friends, support each other, and generally just share our love of books!

This week's question is:

"What book-to-movie adaption have you most liked?  Which have you disliked?"

What a good question this week! The one that I like the most and was most impressed by has to be The Secret Life of Bees (written by Sue Monk Kidd). It is the most heart-warming movie I have seen in a long time. I have watched it countless times and I still cry the whole way through it! Dakota Fanning displays some outstanding acting!

The book-to-movie adaptation that I actually disliked is Never Let Me Go (written by Kazuo Ishiguro). To me the book was appealing and extremely tragic. The movie was not. I felt that the character's relationships weren't well developed in the movie. I also thought the movie was very slow and boring. I was watching it with a friend who hadn't read the book and I felt like I had to apologize for making him sit through it. While I wouldn't recommend the movie I do highly recommend the book!
