Another maybe a nudge old movie/book though but that is more of a “read the book, keep away from the movie” kind of situation is The World According to Garp by John Irving.

Umm ya, the Wanted grafic novel is almost a polar opposite of the movie.While the main character is an assasin, most everyone else is just the classic comic supervillan/homocidal maniac.There are several mentions of him committing rape, not one saying it’s a bad thing, and a couple mentions of pedophelia.The entire premise is of a group of supervillians with absolute control and no risk of being caught.The police work for them, not some of the police but ALL of them.All in all, not something you’d want to your kids to be reading, or even a few adults.

Blindness by Jose Saramago should definitely be on the list; he won a fucking Nobel Prize!

Give it a rest, people. So, your favorite book in the world didn’t make it onto the list. Too bad. Just take this list as something positive, reading recommendations for great movies and books. The tile wasn’t “The only books that were made into movies that you should ever read.” It’s ten books, not a thousand. You can’t reference every great book. (Though, kudos for putting up Twilight and Harry Potter 6. They may be written for teens and children, but they are great books, if you like fantasy. I’m not one to talk, being a teen though.)

Oh great list! I really enjoyed reading Twilight (which I know says in your article is great for teens, I highly recommend it for all women of any age, as I loved it) and The Other Boleyn Girl. I’ll have to check out the rest of those books!

(I had no idea Sex in the City was based off of a book!!)
