Sharing Beyond Books #390 Comment Giveaway March 7, 2020

Hello again and Welcome to Sharing Beyond Books, SBB.
Thanks to everyone who commented last week.

At least 10 of us like historical romances although the time periods range from Medieval, Scottish Highlander, Regency, Victorian, Western, 1900 and WWII. Four of us like sci-fi and fantasy including space, post-apocalyptic and parallel universe.

The Winner from SBB #389 comments is #2 LINDA who can make a GC choice if international or book choice from the Updated (**Finally!) ARC/Review titles or (recently updated) Love and Christmas titles - all linked near the end of the post. -- [11/16/19 I plan to add some review books this week and maybe some new Christmas and Love titles as soon as I locate the box I put them in.  10/5/19 I have pulled some new books and will be adding them to the list in the next week or so.

**NOTE: I did post an Updated ARC and Other books for Giveaways. I have to go back and list the titles -- someday.
Please let me know your choice by completing the WINNER FORM.

WEEK #390
(One Question.)

Fredamans asks: What is your favorite book to movie adaption??
We had a similar question in 2011 but I don't even recall my own answer then. :-)
The movie that comes to mind first is Lord of the Rings. Another one that comes to mind is Ender's Game which I had read years back. The movie helped me recall the book and make better sense of it.
Another favorite book to movie adaptation is To Kill a Mockingbird.
More recently I like the Harry Potter series and the Hunger Games adaptations.
I can think of more but I'll let you name some!
To Kill A Mockingbird Gregory Peck Harper Lee

Thanks to those who are sending in Questions. DON'T BE SHY! Surely everyone has a Q or two you'd like to ask. Input suggestions in this Suggested Question Form. At the end of each month, I draw from the suggestions I used during the month and that person will get a 1/2 book choice or $2.50 towards GC. I thank everyone for submitting questions. Thanks for sending in questions! The supply of questions is dwindling so share some if you think of any -- even if they are duplicates I'll weed through or try to modify them.
