You know itttt
Movies are much easier to watch
Main reason I'm praising and happy Netflix, HBO and Amazon aren't disappointing with their TV adaptations.

It's way more easier to understand the story and get attached. If you enjoy it well enough, one might be forced to go check out the books.

It's better you just watch the series in Nov first, then tuck in for the long ride with the books... Believe me, reading a good fantasy and watching the movie adaptation is like ice cream flavours, chocolate and vanilla grin.

I'm currently waiting for G R R Martin's winds of winter, I'm sure I'll be getting a different energy from the final seasons of GOT.


Lol, guy you'll wait a fvvking long time for that book to be finished. With Martin's slow pace even the House of the Dragon show will finish season one and yet he hasn't finished the book. grin

Yeah, this needs fixing. grin
It's good everyone's sharing their experience. Maybe this will spur some of us in actually doing something about it.

Maybe we should form a book challenge.
Start reading a book before it drops or concurrently with the new incoming shows. Starting with Wheel of Time, Dune, The Witcher, Fire & Blood etc.

The last book (about emotional intelligence) I read was in October last year and that's mainly because my smartphone was stolen, so I had free time from social media and distractions. The book sef, I no read am reach half. Probably like 20 something pages cry


Opening a new thread will be better , so we don't digress from the purpose of this thread.

P.S : I propose a fine for people who don't meet up
Like 10k
The fear of paying 10k will make me read

Hello,
There's the Storm light archive (Male and Female heroines) and Mist born Saga(Female heroines). I believe those are his easiest books to follow.

Sure thing, thank you

Me I thought I would have the time during the lockdown last year alas I had about 2TB of movies and shows to see grin grin, I made the same promise of "A book per month in January" cry, here we are in September with approximately zero book read grin

At this point I am just waiting on Netflix, HBO and the likes to adapt these books into movies to save me the hassle. wink

Me rn. I don't even know how I manage to balance my books and shows but whenever I don't have anything to watch, I read.. And vice versa grin

Growing up, I am a very avid and dedicated reader but then life hits at a tender age then boy had to man up to the realities and responsibilities of life.



In the past three years, I have started forty books and completed only 7. The rest were either abandoned at the last chapter or second to the last.

To my credit, I can claim to have read the biggest book on this thread: The mammoth book containing
biography of Tafa Balewa collated by English author(s) (can't remember the names at the moment).


P.S: Growing up, I have read the entire Oxford pocket dictionary page to page thrice over and the Holy Bible twice over page to page.



But Nigerian economy can't allow such luxuries anymore cheesy

it use to be for me yester years ago, I would literally ask for books from my Father back then as gift during the festive season..Alas life happened and all the time for books was "literally sucked" from me sad, I hope to find the time and spark again for books. I have an impressive collection of hard copy books saved in mint condition.
hopefully the spark comes again, I can understand the time constraints tho

Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by sharorberlain: 10:01am On Sep 21, 2021
If you ask me o, I will wholeheartedly tell you that "I'm tired of watching all these Nollywood movies with poor visual effects, especially all these their fake gun shots, fake fire and fake disappearance, amateur car accident scenes... a lot of it. I guess that's one of the reasons their script virtually look the same.
I saw a video on YouTube; these Nigeria guys recently started teaching Nigerians on how to create movie effects. I researched and did chat with one of them. These guys have been underground doing their visual effects thing. When I wrote them, their response was more like they don't want to forcefully grab the industry. I have that feeling that they are into something BIG... well, who knows?! I feel they are going to be one of the best VFX companies in Nigeria. I also watched one of their music video effects. Mehn! Bro, these guys are good.
I started reasoning on how they could change the storylines in our Nigerian film industry (Nollywood movies). At least if it won't be a bad idea if I see a Sci-Fi movie produced in Nigeria.
You should watch their video on Facebook or YouTube to see for yourself.
