We are too!!
This confirms I am not a bookworm anymore! I hardly know any of these!! I must say though, I’ve seen the trailer for the Love, Simon film and it looks sooooooooo good! Though movies are never as good as the books!
Thank you for sharing this with us at #TriumphantTales. I hope to see you back next week!
I had no idea there would be so many. A friend and I often choose a book that is being made into a movie to read and then watch the movie together to discuss what we think of the adaptation. 99% of the time we prefer the book! Will be sending her this list right away to choose our next one!
