The Devil in the White City: A Saga of Magic and Murder at the Fair that Changed America | Erik Larson

pick

Sooooooo good. HH Holmes!
In The Garden was interesting but Devil had me hooked! Nonfiction was never so frightening and riveting. Can't wait for the movie!

thank you for the add @SanjanaGhosh

Vanity Fair | William Thackeray

I bought this gorgeous edition of Vanity Fair years ago and read it but... It's one of the books where I think the movie was better!

What #moviewasbetter for you?
#classic

hello to @Smrloomis @Lizzybennetgirl

Freespirit Maybe Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy but only just😊

Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy

emz711 @Freespirit it's on my list! 6y

Lizzybennetgirl I definitely liked the Gone With The Wind movie better than the book. The book is amazing, but I feel like the movie does a great job of bringing the book to life and condensing some tedious details.

BooknerdsLife That edition is Gorgeous!!! 😍😍 I‘m drooling lol 😆 6y

emz711 @BooknerdsLife I know right? I couldn't pass it up 6y

Smrloomis I liked Divergent far better as a movie and also - I was surprised to find - I thought Black Klansman was better too! Sorry, Ron Stallworth. Not classics but I still really remember those!

Black Klansman: Race, Hate, and the Undercover Investigation of a Lifetime

emz711 @Smrloomis I never got into that series 6y

Smrloomis @emz711 I enjoyed the first book, but not the rest. I think you should skip them and - gasp - watch the movies instead! 😆 (edited) 6y

The Jungle Book | Kipling

I was a bit shocked this was such a dark story full of revenge which makes me question how appropriate it is for children but it was well read & featured a celebrity cast. #audiobook #moviewasbetter

Crimson Peak: The Official Movie Novelization | Nancy Holder

so-so

When I received this book as a birthday gift (I loved the movie) I was really hoping for a more in depth look at the characters and perhaps a little fleshing out of the story, what I got was a novel that was roughly exactly the same as the movie with no extra details and although it was a quick and cute read it wasn't exactly what I wanted. I still love the story but wish it was more in depth. Overall I give it a 6/10 #moviewasbetter

Shay_Cray Check out "The Art of Darkness" it is a movie companion and has everything on all of the characters! 6y
