Books books books! Reading books, textbooks, all sorts of books. Welcome to our bookalicious edition of You Only Live Once with The Crazies. ðŸ˜›

Radha: Attention team.
Jot: We have an important announcement to make.
Rani: Excuse me excuse me excuse me.
Radha: What is it Rani?
Rani: Some CCs are so studious you know?
Jot: That's a good thing right?
Rani: No! May I narrate my story?
Radha: Yup shoot!
Rani: Boys and girls, ladies and gentlemen...Enemies and friends...brothers and sis...
Jot: OMG! Cut to the chase man!
Rani: Sorry sorry...So I asked 3 of my lovely CC mates to tell me about books they are interested in reading this year. And you know what? I got the most boring answers ever...well at least from two of them. I mean they are so studious and I admire them for that, but yaar kuch to creativity daalo. ðŸ¤£


Stuti:
I am not a big reader at all. The only books that are a cup of my tea are my textbooks. ðŸ˜† If there is any book that I would read, they would my textbooks. They educate me so well on all the various subjects I take. Books may be interesting to read, but they just don't go so well with me. I love my textbooks and you should too because they educate you so well. My favorite textbook is Chemistry. I can read that book for days and days.  Chemistry is a must in a girl's life. ðŸ˜‰ ðŸ¤£


Yuvika:
Man I second my mate Stuti. And I don't want to repeat all that she said. But I agree with everything she said. Textbooks enrich you. They make you a more educated person. And a person cannot live in this world without a little bit of knowledge. My favorite textbook would be the accounting textbook. Accounting is a tedious and very hard subject, but the textbook makes it fun and enjoyable with all those accounting examples! It really helps you grasp the subject better! So folks open up those textbooks and take them seriously. They are actually very helpful believe it or not! ðŸ˜† 


Aashifa:
I actually have a list. Woot woot. I have 4 books that I want to read this year.
1. The Life of Pi 
2. The Help
3. Harry Potter (The Final One)
4. Guzzarish


Sami: Nice list Aashifa!
Aashifa: Thank you.
Radha: I'm actually very impressed by Stuti and Yuvi. I never knew they were such study-alochics. That's so good girls. I'm proud of you! And Aashifa darling you have one lovely list. Hats off.
Jot: Yo Ranz what about you...
Rani: I want to read Is Pyar Ko Kya Naam Doon... Oh and Ek Haazron Mein Meri Behna Hai...And Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gaum...
Jot: Failed attempt at creativity.
Rani:  That was actually brilliant, thankyouverymuch.
Jot: Yeah whatever.
Rani: It was unique yaar. And you watch I'll create those books one day. And then you will be left stunned.
Jot: Boring...
Radha: Ok ok...Enough! So lovely members of IF, you've had your dose of the CC Library. Time to share your library with us. What books are you interested in reading this year? Share away.

Over the years, both Bollywood and Hollywood film industries have made films which have been adaptations of books.



Some have been extremely successful and earned either critical success or commercial success and/or both. While, some have faced some criticism if the audience and critics felt the film makers and star cast could not do justice to the story.
 
 Indeed it is a hard job to transform someone's penned thoughts into a visual picture for us all.
 
 
 
Have you ever wondered what exactly strikes film makers to produce a film based on a book rather than their own fresh script?
 
 
Do you think its a good idea to have books adapted into movies? and why?
 
>>>>>
 
Have you ever read a book and thought it had all the essential elements to be transformed into a movie?
 
 
The CC team requests you all to imagine yourself as a film maker and think back at books you have read or are reading which you feel could be made into a movie and has the chance of being successful and appreciated by all.

Absolutely Rocking thread CC's and if there was ever a book that was written waiting to be made into a critically appreciated bollywod blockbuster then it has to be A Suitable Boy by Vikram Seth

Very well said.
 
Another movie in the blockbuster classics would be 'Life of Pi' -- YOLO

Have you ever wondered what exactly strikes film makers to produce a film based on a book rather than their own fresh script?
 I think it might be due to the popularity a book achieves and also the content and the story line the author presents.
 
Do you think its a good idea to have books adapted into movies? and why?
 Though I am not always content with the movies that are made based on novels as they sometimes don't live up to the standards, I still feel that its a great idea. According to me novels bring innovation to cinema. 

Have you ever read a book and thought it had all the essential elements to be transformed into a movie?
 I think "Falling Leaves" by Adeline Yeh Mah is a great novel based on the author's real life story which could be transformed into a film. 

P.S: Love the list the CCs gave, I have read and watched almost every single one of the titles mentioned. Also, I think Life of Pi would be one of the classic addition to the list.
