I got so bored with it that I resorted to Sparknotes. I also got an A. :P

I tried several years ago to red “The Scarlett Letter” but I couldn’t get into it. I’ll try again eventually.

I don’t like the HP movies. I suppose they did what they could with all the regulations placed upon them, but still...

Twilight is a disgusting series. I don’t understand how it can be so popular.

The Ender’s Game / Shadow series totally blows a lot of recent novels away. The film was better than I expected. Considering that part of the book was originally a 1977 short story, and a. Published novel series in the 1980s the books were way ahead of their time in terms of social commentary.

My husband didn’t like the way the Harry Potter films turned out. I never read the Twilight books but heard they were rather bad, and the movie I saw when she’s pregnant was weird. It wasn’t even logical.

Give “The Scarlet Letter” another try! The first time I read it was in HS, and it took me about half way through to start enjoying it. Now I list it as an “all time” favorite!

I like Stephen King’s writing but inevitably I want to rewrite his endings, book or movie!
