A lot of recent books have hit the big screen this year. What book into movie is your favorite. I have three recent ones. All have done a pretty good job of getting the story right except for the end of the third one and I will tell you why:
1. Warhorse. Think this worked into a movie really well. But the book was a short one and written for the juvenile market so was more action filled to begin with.
2. Water for Elephants. The book is one of my favorites. I love the ending. The book was better than the movie but they did a pretty good job of getting the story straignt. It is one of those where the images in my mind were stronger than the screen could provide.
3. Gone Girl. Loved the book and the movie was pretty good until the end.....somebody would have cleaned her up! If you see the movie you will know what I mean.
Who made your A list this year?

Hmm. I don't go to movies in recent years. Well, because most movies these days suck. I really like the book Misery and the movie was pretty good as well lol.

I watched Gone Girl recently. I really liked it. I have heard the book is even better.
