Am I the only one that looks at what books are getting turned into movies the following year? This is something that I try to do nearly every year because I either like finding out if there are any books I have read that are getting an adaptation or if there are any books that I need to check out.
I am definitely one of those people that needs to read the book before the movie. Why? It’s not really for snobbery the movie like a lot of people do. I mostly want to read them before the movie because I know if I don’t then I won’t even bother reading the book. There are so many things that a movie changes or don’t even bother including that it’s almost a sin to not even read the book. So why don’t I bother reading them if I watch the movie first? Most of the time the end result is going to be the same. It’s not very often that the ending of a movie differs from the book. Because of this, I don’t exactly get excited to find out what’s going to happen in the book which makes it hard for me to find any interest in the story.

Hey everyone and welcome to Owl Book World! With there being a lot of readers out there I want to be able to give everyone another option of where to get books. I’m getting to the point where I’m getting tired of putting money into someone’s pocket that makes three times as someone who owns an independent book store. I’d rather put my money towards someone who actually needs it and it probably struggling right now because of covid. If I’m like that then I’m sure there are even more people out there who feel the same way. Eventually, I’m going to do a post on alternatives of Amazon but first I want to bring up Bookshop. What is Bookshop? And exactly do they help independently owned stores?

Can you guys believe that Christmas is almost here? As Christmas is vastly approaching I know a lot of readers want books with a Christmas theme. Every year it always crosses my mind what books with a Christmas theme are out there. A lot of the same Christmas books are pushed every year in my opinion. So we need a little bit of variety. I also want to make sure to include that the books that I recommend aren’t your typical Hallmark type of book. Why? They are typically what everyone goes for. That’s okay but I know there are some readers out there like me who aren’t really a fan of the cheesy Christmas books!
