This may sound dumb, but I’ve never read for this man. I’ve always just heard about him on social media but never ventured to read his work. Opinions, please. Should I invest? Feeling like fiction lately. I’ve read so much non-fiction through throughout my life that I think I deserve a couple of fiction books to get busy with for a little while.
Thanks in advance
I’ve read “the hobbit” last month and it was wonderful. I really enjoyed it. Then watched the movie and got really mad how they didn’t follow story. Same thing with “the count of Monte Cristo”, watched the 2000 movie and I wanted to go choke the director of the movie. WTH did they do that for. The whole story was messed up. Lol
I never go into a movie expecting them to stay close to the book. To paraphrase Douglas Adams, each medium has it’s own way to tell a story and you can’t compare them equally
I get it, but the books were so good that the movies made me mad. Especially, the count of Monte cristo. That really got on my nerves. They actually modified the story to tell different events. :/
