September 11th to 17th
Hosted by I Am A Reader, Not A Writer
&
This hop features books that have been made into movies or TV shows.
Some blogs will be giving away the book, some the movie & others both!
My Giveaway:
I haven't even had time to think of what I wanted to do for this giveaway. I spent the day in Vegas at a doctor's appointment for my son then got a speeding ticket on the way home. First ticket I've ever gotten in my life, not that I haven't deserved one in the past, I've just been lucky enough to have never been caught before. I just got the kids to bed and should have this post live in 5 minutes... It's been one of those days.
So this will be a winner's choice giveaway. I'll purchase a book that has been or is being made into a movie from the book depository for the winner (up to $12). Or I'll provide a $12 Amazon Gift card for the winner to pick a book or movie from Amazon.

Hi! :) Well, I definitely have seen all the Pride and Prejudice versions that I could get my hands on, and some I love way more than others... but an example of one movie that was actually better than the book - The Hunt for Red October. :)
ReplyDeleteLois
Speeding tickets suck. I hope the news from the doctor wash away some of the regret about the ticket :(
ReplyDeleteMy fav book turned movie is Gone With The Wind. Every woman should read M. Mitchell’s book and watch the movie. And the chemistry between Gable and Leigh just jumps off the screen. Love to hate Scarlett for her childish behavior and manipulative nature and hate to love Gable for his devilish charms. Can’t get enough of that movie!
There are too many to name, I love Harry Potter, True Blood, One For the Money, The Hunger Games, Pretty Little Liars, LOTR, the list goes on
ReplyDeleteThank you for organising such a cool event!
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited about the movie adaptation of City of Bones by Cassandra Clare - The Mortal Instruments is one of my favourite series! I'm following daily the news about the set and the cast and I can't wait to see the movie in 2013!
