3 books to read before the movie in 2014

I've been reading up a storm in my new reading nook (aka Aiden's nursery) and I am pretty darn excited about the books that are being turned into movies this year. I really enjoyed all three of the books below and can't wait to see them in movie form! {Click links below to watch the Trailer}

1. Gone Girl
The cast for this movie looks great: Ben Affleck, Tyler Perry, Neil Patrick Harris. This book was one of the craziest books I've ever read and I am tempted to read it again before seeing the movie in October! If you want a quick read that will keep you engaged at every page turn, this is it!

2. Before I Go To Sleep
I read this book right after finishing Gone Girl because I needed another thriller. This was another book I couldn't put down and again the cast looks perfect! Yay Nicole Kidman.

3. The Giver
I read this book back in high school and then read it again recently with my book club. I love the idea behind this book and am excited to see how they make it on the big screen.

Are there any other books turning into movies this year I need to start reading?!

Book Club Picks

So I'm kind of obsessed with Goodreads. As nerdy as it may sound, I have been having so much fun finding new books to add to my Want to read list and rating books I've already read. I just finished The Husband's Secret by Liane Moriarty. Find me on Goodreads to see what I thought...

As I've been thinking back on some of my favorite books, I started thinking about the books I have most loved discussing with others. So I came up with a list of the books I would recommend to book clubs looking for a new book to read. The books I picked are not necessarily the best books I have ever read, but they are worth reading and are great books to discuss for the content and the twists and turns that lie within.

What books would you add to this list? My book club needs a new book for March!
