Beat the Backlist - hosted by beaudoindani17

turned into a movie or tv show
Sometimes a beloved book is turned into a movie or tv show, other times though, the movie or tv show compelled me to purchase the book it came from, but I still haven't picked it up. Either way if it's still on your list now is the time to knock it out! I feel like for this one, you should get bonus points (sorry there isn't a way to do that!) if it's actually the movie/tv tie-in edition.
