Book to Movie Challenge Complete!

Challenge lasted from September 1 through December 1.

The goal was to read at least 3 books that have been made into movies. I really loved ALL of my choices.

I liked the Children of Men book much better than the movie;  and whoa, they changed the storyline a ton.  I did like Clive Owen and a very few things that were different, but overall I say read the book.

Dracula and Anne of Avonlea both received a rare 5-star rating.  I started the movie with Gary Oldman in it and still want to watch it, but I didn’t think it was appropriate for my kids so I’ll have to watch it later.  I got the Anne movie adaptations from Netflix, and I can’t wait to watch those.

Last but not least, it was a re-read, but I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the audiobook of The Outsiders with my family.  A few days later we watched the movie and all of us thought it was great; it follows the book almost exactly.  It was really fun to share both the book and the movie with my teenage sons.

Thanks, Callista, for hosting this again!
