Ally’s comments from the Book vs Movie Challenge group.

How is everyone going with this challenge. Anyone finished any books/movies?

Hi everyone, when you've finished reading a book for this challenge you can post it here http://theroyalreviews.blogspot.com/2...

Make sure you go and check out everyone else's reviews and be sure to leave them a comment.

I've almost finished Just Like Heaven by Marc Levy and it is so different to the movie, which I've seen but will watch again when I'm finished. The details that have been changed are many!

I've finished my first book, Cold Mountain by Charles Frazier the review is here: http://alainereading.blogspot.com/200...
Enjoyed the book and movie, which surprised me, I didn't think the book would be very good.

I didn't like Twilight until I was about 2/3 of the way through the book but then went on to read the whole series and I loved it. I've also seen the movie a couple of times!

Hi Emily, I didn't think I would like Twilight either and in fact I had to read half the book before I fell in love with the story. I read all four books within a week or so. I saw the movie after I'd put the book aside, then decided to give it another go.

I have both version of Pride and Prejudice as well and I love them. I am reading Sense and Sensibility.

I just got my own DVD copy of Sense and Sensibility with Emma Thompson and Hugh Grant so I think that's what I'll read first.

In this folder post the books you've read and reviewed. You don't need to post the actual review, just tell us what you've reviewed and then we can check out your profile.

This is the folder you use to post what you are reading for the challenge. What are you going to start with?

Hi Everyone and welcome! The rules of the challenge are simple. Just read 6 books and watch 6 movies and compare. In your review tell us if the movie did the book justice. The idea of this challenge is to have fun, I love reading books and then watching the movie and then discussing it. Let us know what you are reading in the 'Currently Reading' folder and when you've done a review let the group know by posting a message in the 'Read & Reviewed' folder. I can't wait to see how my TBR pile grows from this group. Have fun!
