Have you ever come across a book that sounded really interesting, but then you just never got around to reading it, because well you possibly got distracted by other equally or more interesting books? For me, that’s exactly what happened with this book/series. I found the premise really interesting, but clearly never interesting enough to…

If you’ve been following this blog, you know that early in the year I did a post on 10 Book to Movie Adaptations coming out in 2018. I had originally written the post as a resource for you guys, but as it happens it’s proven super useful for myself, to keep a track of all…
10 Book to Movie Adaptations Coming Out in 2018
If you’ve known me or followed this blog for any length of time, you know that I’m a big fan of book to movie adaptations. Of-course I always prefer to read the book first (unless I plan to skip it – which is rare), and more often than not, I find the book better than…

The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks | Book and Movie Review
This book was my very first exposure to Nicholas Sparks’s writing, although I had seen a couple of movies that were based on his books, and had loved them both (Safe Haven & The Best of Me). Which is what made me very curious about his books. I felt like if the movies were this good,…
