I was wary of If I Stay not translating well to the screen, but I ended up thinking that it was one of the more faithful book-to-film adaptations I've seen. I also definitely think it's worth seeing in theaters! :)Lee @ Rally the Readershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03316252000736657757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3873992034703741659.post-34398922932222627442014-08-30T12:08:00.577-04:002014-08-30T12:08:00.577-04:00Oooh, I was really cautious about seeing If I Stay...Oooh, I was really cautious about seeing If I Stay because I know exactly what you mean about film adaptations recently. I didn't see Vampire Academy (and I haven't read it yet) but I did see both City of Bones and Beautiful Creatures and I didn't think either did the books justice so it's really promising that you enjoyed the film so much!<br /><br />Thanks for reviewing, I may now actually go and see the film now instead of waiting for the DVD!Faithhttp://geekyzoogirl.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3873992034703741659.post-26411622774532555242014-08-28T21:12:44.143-04:002014-08-28T21:12:44.143-04:00I relate 100% to not having spare cash for books t...I relate 100% to not having spare cash for books these days. The book and its sequel are absolutely worth a read when you have the chance; I read them back-to-back and was a little wrecked for a few days afterwards, lol.Lee @ Rally the Readershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03316252000736657757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3873992034703741659.post-76320760560811767192014-08-28T21:05:21.685-04:002014-08-28T21:05:21.685-04:00I haven't been this excited about a film adapt...I haven't been this excited about a film adaptation of a book in a while. The movie truly did the novel justice, I think, and I have my fingers crossed that the sequel gets made!Lee @ Rally the Readershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03316252000736657757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3873992034703741659.post-31414603826861560552014-08-27T15:09:18.859-04:002014-08-27T15:09:18.859-04:00I have heard great things about the film adaption ...I have heard great things about the film adaption from the book, and I am definitely eager to get my hands on the book. I am just loathe at the moment to pay over the odds for an e-book when I am so poor, and I have not enough space to buy an actual copy, so I will have to wait for a while. Still, I will definitely try and read the book before I watch the film. Pleased to hear you enjoyed this so much.

Another one of my favorite bloggers recently read this one too and she loved it, so if I didn't already know I need to read the book, seeing how well the film adapted the material would have done it! We're so rarely fortunate enough to get a film worthy of it's book that this seals the deal for me. Adding this book to my wishlist now, so I can see the film asap! Thanks for the wonderful review Lee ^^ xMichelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09220874121683955988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3873992034703741659.post-11512223130403307762014-08-26T19:33:15.843-04:002014-08-26T19:33:15.843-04:00I loved both, too!

I'm glad the film was a great adaptation for you - that is also encouraging, since I can read the book and look forward to watching the film after! :) Bookish Whimsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16028950059555351758noreply@blogger.com
