Speaking of lovable disasters and fairytales, have you ever read "Stardust" by Neil Gaiman?
"Stardust" was another book I discovered after seeing (and falling in love with) the movie.
In the town of Wall, life is...normal, average, barely this side of boring (if you didn't know how boring, the town is named after an imposing stone barrier which separates the town from a grassy meadow). Tristran Thorn loves Victoria Forester and vows to retreieve a fallen star for her, in exchange for her hand in marriage.
Along the way, well....there's magic, intrigue, murder, pirates, witches, and crossdressing (done by a pirate calling himself Shakespeare). I mean, doesn't that sound amazing?
And, honestly, I think I prefer the movie to the book. But it's just that brilliant. Please go watch it (it's usually on Netflix).
Is there any book where you prefer the movie version?
