I just finally saw the movie a few weeks ago...it was also very good, but I always seem to think the book is the better version in these cases.

I mean, I finished it, which is saying something because I never finish books I'm not interested in, but I just waited for it to pick up and I felt like it never did. It was a very thoughtful book though. I definitely thought about the novel for a while after I finished it. <br /><br />I haven't done a book club with you yet, but I think I'd like to read Life of Pi with you next month. I LOVED the movie. I was blown away by the beautiful CGI, but mostly for the religious symbols that it held. I am so excited to read the book with you. :)Jenniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06532899712985168672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22472965.post-84226524281405957002013-07-31T11:05:38.546-06:002013-07-31T11:05:38.546-06:00The Help is one of my absolute favorite books ever...The Help is one of my absolute favorite books ever. It is also the first one I read with my mom.

I like sticking with a book club because it encourages me to read books that I wouldn't necessarily choose myself (though this one in particular was already on my "To Read" list!).Janinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06503725719427995862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22472965.post-62550884857859838662013-07-31T07:10:55.915-06:002013-07-31T07:10:55.915-06:00I thought the movie represented the book pretty we...I thought the movie represented the book pretty well, but like most movies from books, it did leave out a ton.
