Movies from Books Watched
Like Water for Chocolate. I actually think I liked the movie better than the book!
Prince Caspian. So the first time I saw the movie, I hadn't read the book in probably 5 years. This time, we had just finished reading the book. Wow! We were all flabbergasted by the changes from book to movie.

I read only three books in November. Two are Tintin albums and third was from October!
ReplyDeleteHere is my Weekly Geeks post!
I loved Girl in Translation as well. And I just started Prince Caspian this morning!
ReplyDeleteI was not impressed with the book Like Water for Chocolate, so maybe I'd like the movie better?
