Upcoming Book to Movie Adaptation News

<title> Movie News </title>
So, book to movie adaptations as we all know, can be either a hit or miss, but yet,  our fondness for our favorite novels tend to hinder our need to guard the sacredness the story holds in our hearts! Well, over trial and error on dealing with my curiosity, I just step in the theater with a low expectation, and feel prepared for either a mind-blowing event, or if it’s a super let down, hey, just give the movie another name and totally pretend it has nothing to do with the book you loved so much *laughs*     

Hope you find something you’ve read or interested in. =) Happy viewing, all! Keep an eye on this post for added adaptations, being in the awesome world of book blogging, I stumble upon news quite often, and will be sure to keep you all informed! If you feel I have missed any, please by all means, let me know.
