Finally‚ the long-awaited movie adaptation of the Giver is here. However‚ no movie adaptation stays completely true to its source material‚ and the Giver is no different.

Frankenstein book was a little long to read and not very interesting to me. The pictures were good to have to somewhat visualize what was going on‚ but otherwise the book was a waste of time to me.

With a Little Bit of Joy A good action movie pumps you up‚ makes you sweat‚ and keeps you on the edge of your seat. I would say everyone likes at least one action/thriller movie because it makes you feel different emotions throughout the movie. Some people including myself feel like a book can’t give you the quick immediate feelings that a movie gives you.
