I was not prepared for how amazing Looking for Alaska was. That was never my fave John Green book. But the show just made me love that book so much more. The way it added to the story was just perfect.
CHRISTINE!! you HAVE to see: - Let It Snow, the netflix film adaptation!! - Psych - The West Wing (same creator as the beauty which is the newsroom, Aaron Sorkin) - On my block - sense8 - unbelievable - veronica mars - when they see us - one day at a time!!!
I was just minding my own business watching youtube videos when an ad for a tv show comes on. The longer it goes on I'm intrigued I watch the entire thing without pressing 'skip'. And then the title screen comes up and it says 'Looking for Alaska'. I was shook. It was such a pleasant surprise. I didn't want to get my hopes up after Paper Towns but now I HAVE to watch it.
I read Looking For Alaska soooo long ago that i decided to reread after watching and was so pleased with how it both stayed true with the story while expanding so wonderfully! And Fleabag Season 2...can not WAIT to hear your thoughts.
LFA focused SO much on the individual characters which is why I LOVED IT SO MUCH. and how perfect was the scene when miles and alaska finally got together and "i will follow you into the dark" played omg the nostalgia
The Legend trilogy used to be my absolute favourite series when I read it years ago, and it still holds such a special place in my heart. I'd love to read Rebel, but I remember almost nothing about what happened during or at the end of book three (I have a useless memory, haha) .. Does it have a sort of recap of what happened in the last three books within Rebel? or would it be worth re-reading Champion? As always, great video Christine!.. I'm adding lots of these films + books to my list!
I just ended reading Rebel, and I didn’t need to reread Champion, it does kind of hints to things in the past so it is not necessary. It really brings an end to the story!
I loooooove Fleabag. It was a show I never intended to pick up until I heard it won a lot of awards and had this gut feeling I needed to try it immediately, and I loved it. Season 2 is equally amazing.
Christine, Moria Wallet Beckett one of the writers and producers of breaking bad. Is the writer and creator for Anne with an E which on Netflix. Frist 2 seasons are out and the 3rd season is hitting in January and it is flat out amazing. Has touched on so many important subjects. And is full of wonderful characters. You will love it especially season 3 which has just been truly special.
Yesss I loved the adaptation of Looking for Alaska so much too and agree with everything you said!! I've watched it twice already 😂I'm so used to being disappointed by adaptations, but with this it was so clear how much the creators loved the material and wanted to do it justice. It somehow managed improved on an already beloved book. So, so, so happy with it! If more adaptations were this good, I would feel excitement instead of dread every time I heard a book I love was being turned into something 🤷🏻♀️
In October I watched all of the seasons of Schitt’s Creek that are on Netflix and I am caught up for the final season. I think you would like it, I loved it so much and I can’t stop thinking about it. It’s just so so so good! I’ve already rewatched most of it. Also, I reread fangirl recently and it’s so much better a second time. 💛 🖤
About Zombieland: Double Tap, maybe it's just me but I'm impressed about how fast they made the movie, they shot it in a little over 2 months, got the editing process done in under 7 months and got it out last month, that is a wild pace for a big film like this. Also Taika Waititi is working with Sterlin Harjo on a TV Show that's gonna be on FX titled Reservation Dogs, about a group of boys who live in a Native American housing project and I'm hyped for it
Christine!!!!!! Have you read the Toll (final scythe novel) yet???!!!! Bc I completely missed the release date and just realized it’s out and Am flipping out!!!
Have you watched The King on Netflix? Robert Pattinson’s character in it was so fun, and it’s a historical drama based on Shakespeare’s King Henry V so I feel like you would totally love it! Also thanks for the recommendations every month, I’m always looking for new things to watch 💕
Your boyfriend liked it. My guy friend was sitting in the movie with me and was thinking throught his decitions that got him here. With me sitting in a historical fiction movie While i am singing the theme song and almost crying
HOLY SHIT THERE'S A LOOKING FOR ALASKA SHOW!?!? How didn't I know this. I don't have Hulu...... I need to find a way to get this!!!!!!!!!!!!! BEST JOHN GREEN BOOK!! The banana look is EPIC!! THERE'S A DOWNTOWN ABBEY FILM!?!? Yes please!!! I need it in my life right meow!!! As someone who loves thrillers Parasite sounds awesome!!
I also loved Looking for Alaska!!! So much!!!!! But the only thing that bothered me all through the series was the way they portrayed Miles and Alaska's relationship as being more than it was. They kept trying to push romantic scenes on them and it felt really wrong. Alaska didn't have time to see Miles as something more than a friend. I always envisioned her as having a mind that goes a thousand miles an hour and she had her boyfriend and drinking and the colonel and her traumas and Miles was a really small part of that. It's something I adored about the books. It gives you the hard truth instead of a cookie cutter fairytale, and I think the series tried to Hollywoodise it a little bit. Other than that 100/10!
@polandbananasBOOKS Have you seen Atypical season 3 on Netflix?? I hadn't watched season 1 or 2 before but when season 3 came out, I watched all 3 seasons in 3 days! It's amazing and you should definitely check it out!
Weird to see you watched The Lighthouse cuz the director is the one who did The VVitch haha. I still am yet to see The Lighthouse and I am not sure if it's not a horror movie cuz The VVitch traumatized me
Vid idea since not only the year is coming to an end but a decade. You should do a 'best of the the 2010s'
LOL THERE'S SO MUCH CONTENT TO SORT THROUGH XD this sounds so difficult
wow I love this idea someone should make this a tag

The LOOKING FOR ALASKA adaptation is an example for how a book adaptation should look like. Really, it was SO GOOD.
I was not prepared for how amazing Looking for Alaska was. That was never my fave John Green book. But the show just made me love that book so much more. The way it added to the story was just perfect.
Melissa Bryson totally agree! It is not my favorite book of his either, but I loved the show so much!!!!
chemistry was unreal
nobody:
christine: *becomes human banana
Ahaha of course I mean she’s Christine
"Everyone's wearing clothes." - Christine
I wasn’t even planning on watching looking for alaska, but now I have to see it 👀
I love Stories I ate this Month! You have such amazing recommendations
🖤🖤🖤🖤
The Banana costume!!! Lol This is why I love you, Christine!!! Also, you look great in yellow.
CHRISTINE!!

- Let It Snow, the netflix film adaptation!!
- Psych
- The West Wing (same creator as the beauty which is the newsroom, Aaron Sorkin)
- On my block
- sense8
- unbelievable
- veronica mars
- when they see us

OMG Psych!!! Yes, love that show!!
literally no one else would just hop on screen in a banana hoodie costume thing and pretend it's normal skdjdk
I miss your book talks 🖤. It had become a routine for me to read a book and then watch your book talk on it after.
So many bananas!! Is this a SimplyBenLogical video?
Christine was a banana first I mean it's literally in her channel name lol
Benana
Ok but now I want a banana onesie 👀

I just finished a book and I loved it it’s called again but better by Christine riccio
🤗❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Looking for Alaska is a perfect adaptation PERIOD
I read Looking For Alaska soooo long ago that i decided to reread after watching and was so pleased with how it both stayed true with the story while expanding so wonderfully! And Fleabag Season 2...can not WAIT to hear your thoughts.

I just got to AFTER and WOW you were not kidding. Looking for Alaska on Hulu is a BEAUTIFUL adaptation. And THE MUSIC 😍
How did I not know about Rebel?!?!?! I need to read this ASAP
The Legend trilogy used to be my absolute favourite series when I read it years ago, and it still holds such a special place in my heart.

Your Stories I Ate This Month are my favorite things EVER! 🥰🥰
I loooooove Fleabag. It was a show I never intended to pick up until I heard it won a lot of awards and had this gut feeling I needed to try it immediately, and I loved it. Season 2 is equally amazing.
Now I'm even more excited to watch Looking for Alaska! Tomorrow I'll hopefully finally get the chance to start watching it 🙌
the legend says she is still listing the things she loved in looking for alaska
Y’all. I never read Looking for Alaska because I knew the end but the show was so so beautiful and I SOBBED. Fleabag is genius.
I completely agree about Carnival Row!!! Their best episode was the one during the war. I wish they had done more during that time.
And I agree the flashback episode is the best
I want to watch Looking for Alaska SO BAD! I absolutely love the book and I LOVE THE OC!!!
This is everything I experienced last month, the best month.
OMG! Downton Abbey was amazing!! I hope they make a second movie!!!🌷❤️

I did not know I needed a banana onesie and banana earrings in my life...until now.
Episode 3 was what hooked me
