You can garner the interesting bits from Pax’s podcast without actually having to read the book yourself!
I strongly urge you to have a listen if you have any interest in movie novelisations, or even just movies in general. Pax recently started the awesome mini podcast called I Read Movies where he compares a movie novelisation with the movie itself and highlights any differences. I really don’t know how he does it, with young children and also fitting in training for marathons. He ravages through several books a month. Part of my reason for starting to make a dent in this pile of books was because of being inspired by Paxton Holley from the Cavalcade of Awesome blog and the Nerd Lunch podcast and Cult Film Club podcast. There are a few crackers in there that I would love to read soon. But I’ve yet to really bust into my growing collection of TV and movie novelisations, which you can see below. For example I read all the Game of Thrones books in a few months, before I started watching the TV show a few years back. When I get into a good book I do love it though.
My commute time is often taken up with work or watching Netflix (which I tend to prioritise over books) and books just fall down the list of priorities.
But the trouble is I often really struggle to find time to read books. I’ve been slowly building up a collection of movie novelisations.
