Thats right, we are now 1 farm further up the road.
I think moving such a short distance is worse in some respects because we still had to pack everything up and load it on the truck.
The poor truck driver then drove the huge distance of 900 meters (the driveway was 400m long!) to our new place to unload everything!!!
But with lots of help from family and friends we were pretty much done by lunchtime.
The unpacking is still a little haphazard but we'll get there.
Anyway........on with the comp!
As I'm still a little all over the place I'm doing it the hassle free way!
For your chance to win ONE book of your choice to the value of US$12 from The Book Depository tell me..............
'what is your favorite book to movie adaptation and why?'
For me the answer is The Lord Of The Rings trilogy because no matter how many times I've tried to read the books.....I just cant get into them!
So leave a comment with your answer and your email address so I can contact you if you win.
Comp will close on the 25th July and winner will be chosen at random.
You must live in a country that TBD delivers to. Good luck xox
I would love to see The House of Night Series by P.C. Cast be put to movie... Im really curious as to how theyll work the tattoos and the half raven half human creatures to life. If ever they do, I hope they don't do it with CGI =P and I would LOVE to see how Stark would look in live action **swoon** lol

I just have two words - HARRY POTTER!!! Yup. this is my fave book to movie adaptation. I remember the first book came out when i was but I wasn't interested in reading it. My love for HP only started after my friends dragged me to the theatre to watch the third movie. There's been no looking back since then. I'm soooooo excited to see the final movie.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway.

Going to have to say Harry Potter #1,2 and 4. The visual effects blew me away, I thought the Chamber of Secrets in the movie was brilliant!!! But I Am Number Four was pretty good too, I just read the book this week and it was hard picking between the movie or the book!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteNew Follower, Great review of Ultraviolet :)

My favorite is The Lord of the rings too, because the movies are so beautiful and even better than the books.

Right now with the last movie out and everything I would probably say Harry Potter though I suppose the books are far better than the movies.I also loved Confessions of a Shopaholic and Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging because they were cute and fun movies.

Thanks for the giveaway!
Thats's a hard question. I loved Confessions of a Shopaholic and Flipped. They were cute movies. Harry Potter and Twilight were good too, but I just don't know which one to choose.

I would say Confessions of a Shopaholic as well. I love that movie.

For me, the Godfather.
ReplyDeletespav05(at)gmail(dot)com
I hope its ok if I say a few as I can't really pick one. I would say I love both "Mystic River" and "Shutter Island" by Dennis Lehane and their movie adaptations, as well as Stephen King's novella "Shawshank Redemption" from his "Different Seasons" collection. Also, in a completely different vein Steve Martin's "Shopgirl."
ReplyDeleteOh and my email is thekidstrumpet@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteOh, that boy with the lightning-shaped scar gets me every time!!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite book to movie choice would have to be Beastly. Since I was a little girl my favorite fairy tale has always been Beauty and the Beast. When I heard about the book Beastly, I just had to read it. I instantly fell in love with it! Then the movie was released and I was yet again fascinated with the fairy tale. Thank you for the opportunity to participate in the giveaway. My e-mail address is faerielillies06@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteEverybody will choose Harry Potter and Twilight saga, and so I am.. about the magic, actions, and about romance
ReplyDeletebut now, I really want to watch percy jackson series... really like about myth..

ReplyDeleteHi, So, I really had to think about this, first thing that came to my mind was Dracula, because that is a classic and so many movies made from it! Then I thought wait there are more out there that I have loved. So I had to look and I found this great website called Based on the Book, which is part of a larger website. http://www.mymcpl.org/books-movies-music/based-book
ReplyDeleteThere I was reminded of a recent one, "I Am Number Four" how could I forget that, especially when I have the second book on preorder! So that is the one I would go with right now, I will change my mind many times as I go through this list and buy more book and rent more movies! Thanks for that!
Lots of love to all readers, Jenn
