By Tribute on December 26, 2014 | 114 Comments
Reese Witherspoon has another chance at Oscar glory, thanks to her riveting performance as Cheryl Strayed in the film Wild. The movie is based on the unbelievable true story of Cheryl Strayed, who told her story in the novel Wild. To celebrate the film we are giving Tribute fans an opportunity to win a copy of the novel the film is adapted from.
Cheryl’s life went into an emotional tailspin when her mother died and her marriage fell apart. After straying into a world of drugs and sex, she decided to clean herself and go on a difficult 1000-mile hike along the Pacific Crest Trail. Cheryl recounted her inspiring story in the novel Wild, where she gives intimate details about her life before, after and during the perilous trek along the Pacific Coast.
For a chance to win, leave a comment below to tell us what is your favorite book-to-film adaptation. ~Kelly Townsend

I read the Twilight books and really was impressed to watch the movies after reading. There is always things you read in the book that you don’t see in the movies that is why I still continue reading. I would love to read Wild before I watch the movie.
The Hunger Games
I saw the movie “Twelve Years a Slave” and then read the book – both were great, but a lot more detail in the book of course. So I am anxious to see the movie “Wild” and also read the book.
Actually I try to read each book for each movie I see and enjoy! I like to see the differences between the two medians and doing both gives me a chance to see how much the movie impacts me personally. Sometimes I enjoy seeing a movie alone so that I can really focus. ….. thank you
For me ‘Into the Wild’ for real-life story and ‘A Little Princess’, the B & W version, for Fiction.
Well, for me, Twilight was a very good movie brought to life from a book.
