There are many books that have been adapted into films or television shows, some good, some not so good. But it's been often said that Gabriel Garcia Marquez's 100 Years of Solitude would be nearly impossible to adapt to the screen, and it turns out...that was not true.In this episode, we talk about the new Netflix limited series of 100 Years of Solitude, what we thought of the show compared to the book, as well as other adaptations that have worked, or haven't worked.What is your favorite on screen adaptation of a book?

Recently for our book club we read Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man. Originally published in the 1950s, it's considered a classic of American literature, though it rarely makes the rounds in most online book spaces these days. In this episode we do a deep dive on the only novel Ellison saw published in his lifetime.Join our book club!patreon.com/LifeonBooksJoin the Life on Books mailing list to stay up to date on all of our latest book giveaways, projects, and more!https://linktw.in/BRYAnVhWant to read one book from every country?
