Episode 29: Book to Movie Adaptations, the good the bad and the ugly

No Thanks We're Booked

In today’s episode Mollie and Katie talk about book to movie adaptations - good ones, bad ones, and ones that are yet to be; ones that are (maybe, don’t stone them) better than the book, ones we like better than the critics, and ones that don’t live up to the book at all. They mention SO MANY, and the list is far from exhaustive. They also reveal some unpopular bookish opinions (again, don’t stone them).
