2016 Book To Movie List

I love reading a book first then watching the movie and critique it afterwards. For example The Martian was an amazing book I read in September-2015, I went with my son to see the movie, who suggested the book to me. This amazing book to movie was 95% accurate and exactly like the book. Books to movie also seem to cut things out and just keep the basic story line. For the Martian the story line was kept and just as I had pictured it. This is why I love reading books that are movies. To see how the director changes things and adds dialogue and to see if what you had in mind is what the author portrayed to others. It because so much more passionate and real.

Here is the list for 2016 and of course subject to change depending on filming. I’m not sure if I want to read each of these, I know there is probably a handful I want to read, some I've already read and others I have no desire too.  I found this list with a lot more information that I of course I didn’t need, but if you would like to check out Shellie’spage here is the link
