But for some books written several centuries ago like Dickens or Austen, I think that viewing the film actually enhances the reading experience for me.<br />I will rarely read a book after seeing the film with current material. For example, I wasn't finished with the 2nd book in the Millennium series, The Girl Who Played With Fire, when we went to the movie. I didn't go back and finish the book even though I was well into it prior to viewing.<br />-Anne<br />http://headfullofbooks.blogspot.comAnne@HeadFullofBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01069558006454986084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5964357429589208132.post-75342175022909341992010-09-02T10:42:18.303-04:002010-09-02T10:42:18.303-04:00I never watch the movie until after I read the boo...I never watch the movie until after I read the book.

Also I like to keep the characters looks up to my imagination and when you watch the movie that is who your going to visualize as the character.
