today is a little bit different because i'm going to be telling you about "people we meet on vacation", the book and movie!
as you probably know, recently netflix released the movie adaptation of "people we meet on vacation". i watched it with my friend, martina, and we absolutely loved it. watch the trailer below if you haven't watched the movie yet!!
if you have the chance to read the book, i highly suggest that you do. i do not regret a moment of it. i finished it in less than a week, and it wasn't even a week that we had a break. it was a school week, which says a lot. it was highly addicting to a point where my mom had to tell me to stop reading every night, though sometimes i got a bit annoyed.
the movie simply doesn't compare to the book because of how much detail it goes into (duh, its a book), but it makes you connect to the characters even more. in the book, you get to look deeper into poppy and alex's vacations and i feel like it is so much more of a slow burn and "will they, won't they".
i also think that the movie adapted the book fairly well, because they were able to condense a lot of the key moments and it still made sense. i won't spoil it, in case you haven't watched/read it yet, but at the end of the book, i was tearing up a little because of how well written it was. i just felt like i was experiencing every moment with them.
and lastly, i think that the end of the movie with the running was much better than in the book because it just showed how poppy would do anything for alex, even the things that she absolutely hates.
but yeah, if you haven't already go check the movie out on netflix and borrow the book from the library!! i don't think you'll regret it, but on the tiny chance you do, i apologize in advance (you won't regret it.).
i hope you enjoyed today and i'll catch you on the next one!!
don't wish for it, work for it.
