As readers, we are almost required to say "the book was better" any time we encounter a movie adaptation. Here in the Book Snug, we are going out on a limb and saying that sometimes the movie is the better experience. Take a listen to this episode to find out which movies surpass the books they're based on and the reasons why we think so. Happy listening!
