As avid readers, we often find ourselves in a unique position where we get to read books and imagine the characters, places, and cultures in our minds. As we dive into the stories, we get lost in their plots, conflicts, and resolutions, sometimes to the point where we wish that they would never end.
But, what happens when the stories that we love are adapted into films? Do they live up to our expectations? If you are like me, you have probably wished that you could read the book before watching the film to make sure that you get the true experience. In this post, I have compiled some of the best books to read before they’re adapted into films.
