Read the Book First
At Read the Book First, we love watching book adaptations come alive on screen! Whether a movie, tv show or a YouTube mini-series, there's something magical about seeing someone's interpretation of a book come to life! We do however believe that you should always try to read the book first.
Each week we'll read a book and discuss it together. Then we'll watch one or two of the book's adaptations and consider the good, bad, and entertaining choices made throughout the adaptations.

We Watched Matilda (1996) and Matilda the Musical (2022) (with Amanda)
Amanda helps us analyze Matilda (1996) and Matilda the Musical (2022).
We discuss the original stage production and how adapting a book into a movie then a stage production and then a movie musical changes a story.
