Recently, I discovered one of my favorite books of all time – “The True Meaning of Smekday,” by Adam Rex – is being adapted into a movie! It’s going to be an animated film called “Happy Smekday!” by Dreamworks, starring Rihanna and Jim Parsons as the voices of the two main characters, to be released in 2014. I’m EXTREMELY excited for the movie! The book is deliciously wacky and unique in terms of the characters, premise, and humor. Which makes me a little bit worried, because what if the studio changes some of it?! My precious book!

I’m sure everyone has experienced this to some extent – either fretting about a movie-to-be, or going to go see a movie adaptation of a book and finding out it isn’t everything you wished for. I don’t know if anyone else saw the movie Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief, but it was not what I was hoping for, especially since I loved the book. Share your fanboy or fangirl book-to-movie adaptation woes below!
