There are a TON of books that are making their big screen debut this year. So if you are hoping to read the book before you see the movie this is the perfect time. Or if you saw a movie and realized it was also a book you can always do a flip flop and read some that way too!

Becca (beccareadingrx) I'm glad this is part of the challenge because it's going to force me to read The Fault in Our Stars by John Green . I've owned this book forever and I can never make myself read it or even see the movie!

M.L. Pennock | 7 comments Marley & Me by John Grogan and The Beach by Alex Garland are both on my list of possibilities.

Stephanie Labarta (areadersoasis) I'm going to be reading Dark Places by Gillian Flynn

Cole Miranda- I loved Marley & Me!! I am going to read Insurgent next month so it is fresh in my mind when I see the movie

I'm going to read Dark Places as well! I loved Gone Girl so this is a good excuse for me to pick that one up :)

TFIOS is so good! Grab a box of kleenex though because its packed with a ton of really awesome intense emotion!

Petra (chernobylchild) I think I'm gonna go old school and pick Breakfast at Tiffany's because that one has been waiting for me since high school.

Mary Sue I chose Breakfast at Tiffany's by Truman Capote for this challenge. I loved it!


message 10: by Stacy (new)

Stacy I just finished The Woman in Black, that was a movie a few years ago. It has the feel of a classic haunted house book but was actually written in the 1980s. If you are the mood for a book that makes you think that became a fantastic movie, Alan Turing is good so far (it's a long listen - 30 hours on audio!) but I was so intrigued by the movie that I decided to try it.

Peggy I just finished The Martian and now hope to see it at the theater this weekend. Good book, so I have high hopes for the film.
