E 28 - Our Favorite (& Most Disappointing) Book-To-Screen Adaptations

Is the book always better than the movie? Did the movie ruin the book series for you? You're not alone. Cami and Liz are back to chat with Courtney about their favorite (and most disappointing) adaptations. We chat about the OGs and what we are looking forward (or *secretly* hope never happen): Harry Potter, Twilight, Divergent, A Court of Thorns and Roses, Fourth Wing, The Selection, The Uglies, The Idea of You, Red Queen, and more.
