The Book is Better than the Movie! 

Books and movies are like apples and oranges. 

They both are fruit but taste completely different.

Stephen King

With one click of a remote young adults have access to thousands of movie and TV show titles through a multitude of streaming services. 

Many young adults (18-25 yr olds) do not read for pleasure, instead, preferring to watch movies. Many memoir and autobiographical movies were in fact, books before they were adapted for the big screen. 

This blog will introduce the reader to several titles that have been adapted by Hollywood and turned into hugely successful films. All these titles are available for borrowing from Bayside Council Library - in a range of formats including audiobooks.
