This may sound dumb, but I’ve never read for this man. I’ve always just heard about him on social media but never ventured to read his work. Opinions, please. Should I invest? Feeling like fiction lately. I’ve read so much non-fiction through throughout my life that I think I deserve a couple of fiction books to get busy with for a little while.
Thanks in advance
EDIT: Thank you so much to all who answered. I have read and appreciated every single comment. I have decided to start with fairy tale since I ran into the book at Walmart. So giving that a shot to see. Thank you so much
I get it, but the books were so good that the movies made me mad. Especially, the count of Monte cristo. That really got on my nerves. They actually modified the story to tell different events. :/
I’m just sad that the middle earth movies didn’t include Tom Bombadil. Yeah, it would have severely interrupted the movie flow but that’s kinda Tom’s whole deal.
The Hearts in Atlantis movie is wholly different from the book and I really can’t get myself to enjoy the movie even when trying not to compare because the underpinning plot drivers were removed. It would be like doing King’s Insomnia as a movie and not including the little doctors.
It’s complicated and a difficult tightrope to walk for people who enjoy both book and movie stories
