<![CDATA[Adaptation Addicts]]>Hello! We are Emly and Hannah and we LOVE when books get turned into movies.

Our premise is simple: First, we will read a book THEN we will watch its movie adaptation and AFTER THAT we break down everything—the good, the bad, and the ‘how-dare-they-change-that?!'. We go deep into these books and we go hard on their movies. So Mind the margins, folks, because we're about to crack the spine and reveal the entire plot!
