		<description><![CDATA[Once upon a time, I discovered a wonderful, wonderful book. Gail Carson Levine&#8217;s Ella Enchanted is immerses you in Ella&#8217;s world, giving you a best friend as well as an adventure. Then Hollywood got their hands on it. And THEY RAPED IT.

A good deal of the book felt familiar, which means the movie did bear some similarity to it. Not that anyone would really care when they could gaze on a GORGEOUS Johnny Depp. The <a href='http://www.thewordofgit.com/readingbackwards/2009/12/chocolat/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[By Helen Fielding Read: October 2009, repeatedly since ~2002 Rating: v.v.v.v.g. Bridget Jones is a classic of our time. She can&#8217;t be anything but. Plenty of people have gone on and on about how this book changed womens&#8217; literature to chick lit (for better or worse).

I saw the movie ages back and don&#8217;t remember much about it except that I liked it more than my mother did, and she thought it was very disappointing. The book is&#8230; strange. I wish we&#8217;d read it in one of my writing classes because <a href='http://www.thewordofgit.com/readingbackwards/2008/12/le-divorce/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

I was given the movie, The Secret of NIMH (also reviewed below, when I was really, really young.

What I am going to say is that it is wonderful. The settings are thorough. The culture feels alive and natural.

		<description><![CDATA[By Marc Levy Rating: Disappointing Read: June 2006 A quaint little bestseller from 2001 about love that transcends (near) death. A 2005 chick flick starring Reese Witherspoon. The movie was better. It was much more real. That says a lot about the book. It was passed on to me by mother, who got it from <a href='http://www.thewordofgit.com/readingbackwards/2006/06/if-only-it-were-true/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

Read: August 05 Honestly, honey, if you only ever see the movie with Bette Midler and Goldie Hawn, you&#8217;ll be ok. No, really. This book was&#8230; very&#8230; 80s?
