Description:

I realized that there have been so many great books (fiction & non-fiction) that have been turned into movies, TV shows, or miniseries, and I haven't read a lot of them! And I think many readers would agree, the book is usually always better than the movie!

So I thought it would be fun to do a swap where we send a Fiction or Non-Fiction Book to our partner, but the catch is, it has to be a Book that has been turned into either a Film, a TV series, or a Miniseries. No children's books for this. However Young Adult Fiction is allowed, as is Classic Books, Memoirs, Biographies, and any other genres.

I've noticed a lot of book genres made into movies, or TV. Here's a few examples: Fault in our Stars, The Maze Runner, Wild, Unbroken, Pride & Prejudice, The Book Thief, The Giver, Safe Haven, Gone Girl, The Help, Outlander, Silver Linings Playbook, Frankenstein, Hundred Foot Journey, The Host, World War Z, Eat Pray Love, Water for Elephants, The Great Gatsby, Game of Thrones, etc. Pinterest and Google both have large lists of books made into movies, TV shows & miniseries.

RE-CAP: So One Book, Fiction or Non Fiction, to One partner, that is a Book that was made into either a film, a TV show, or a miniseries. New or Gently used (still in really great shape). Include a pleasant note to your partner. :)

Please Note: Read your partners profile before sending, because it is important to be mindful if there are certain storylines or genres they are not comfortable with reading.

The quote in the picture is from The Help by Kathryn Stockett.

I added a few more days to the sign up and send by dates since we have so many watchers.

The Help was great! I just wished I read it before I watched it! Great swap!
