The writers at POPSUGAR put together a fantastic list of 35 books to read before they are turned into movies this year. I’ve read some of them:
- Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins (Ermisenda’s review)
- Divergent by Veronica Roth (Ermisenda’s review)
- The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien
…that I apparently need to review. Ermisenda also reviewed Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn.
I’m interested in Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead and The Maze Runner by James Dashner. To be honest, I wasn’t going to read Divergent until I saw the movie trailer and hadn’t heard of Vampire Academy before its trailer. That’s one bonus for movies, they can on occasion allow us to discover books we might not have explored otherwise.
The full list of 36 Books Becoming 2014 Movies is also a convenient pin, so stash it on your TBR board and let’s get reading!
