Books to Movies

Doesn't it always seem that the book was better than the movie adaptation? Today I was looking for a movie to go to on Saturday night and so many come from books. The Namesake by Jhumpa Lahiri is a favorite book, and it is opening this weekend. Notes on a Scandal is based on the wonderful book by Zoe Heller, What Was She Thinking. Bridge to Terabithia is just what the advertising says: the beloved novel comes to life! My plan is to see Zodiac. I haven't read this book but, yes, it started as a book, too.
I will be at the circulation desk tomorrow (Saturday). If you have any Books to Movies favorites come and tell me!
