This month, focus on reading books that have been made into movies. Read books you haven't read yet. For this challenge, read at least 2 or 3 books this month, at least 300 pages, and write an awesome reading response on each book and post on your blog.
Here are some ideas:
Fantasy:
Harry Potter Series
Golden Compass
Lord of the Rings
The Lightning Thief
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Universe
Graphic novels:
Watchmen
V for Vendetta
Persepolis 1 & 2 (Such an awesome and unique memoir! We are going to see the film on Dec 15 at BAM!)
Twilight Series
Female characters:
Rabbit Proof Fence
Whale Rider (one of my favorite movies!)
Sylvia (about Sylvia Plath, one of my favorite poets)
Girl, Interrupted
Virgin Suicides
Recent movies and books:
The Secret Life of Bees
Julie and Julia
The Namesake
Kite Runner
Everything Is Illuminated
Precious (the movie; the book is called Push by Sapphire, a Brooklyn author)
Great classics movies and books:
The Outsiders (all the actors I had crushes on when I was a young gal)
The Mighty (based on Freak the Mighty)
The Shining (or other Stephen King books made into movies; very scary!)
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest
Little Women
Pride and Prejudice, Emma, Sense and Sensibility - all Jane Austen novels and great movies, too
