I loved "The Namesake" when I read it and am trying to decided if I want to see the movie as it is playing in town now. I always hate to ruin a good book with a bad movie. If you read the book and have seen the movie let me know what you think.
I have that book on TBR... I'll have to pull it forward a bit since you liked it :)
I've never heard of either. :shrug:
I just saw this movie last weekend but have never read the book so I can't really compare. But I thought that the movie was quite good...not great...but definitely got my money's worth.
