    I'm really looking forward to seeing what you do with this new feature. There are so many books that have been turned into movies, and it seems to me that they're either awesome or really dull, with very little in between. It'll be nifty to see your opinions on various book-to-movie translations.

    Great idea for a feature! I love watching movies based on books. I'm actually hosting a Page to Screen reading challenge this year so I'll have to link to your monthly feature so participants will get some good reading ideas.

    Sounds like a great new feature! I can never think of anything interesting to use as a feature, lol. Apparently I have no imagination when it comes to that kind of stuff.

    Thanks guys, I look forward to sharing it all. It was a really nice treat to see Blade Runner after watching the film and seeing the differences.

    It's one of my favourite movies and I just never read the book, but I'm very glad I did. Oops, mustn't give too much away! :)

    Thank you for your encouragement, and I hope you enjoy it.
