Because it's spooky season, we thought it only made sense to deep dive the fiction king of literary frights.

Our newest exclusive audio collection at The Popcast is your reminder that adaptation is an art form and that sometimes Hollywood simply understood the assignment.
This 3-episode collection celebrates the rare and beautiful occasions when the movie beat the book. We’re talking books that walked so their movies could run, skip, and click their heels, in an adaptation that elevated the author's intentions in all the best ways.
This Movies > Books Collection includes deep dives on:

Bridget Jones’s Diary

The Wizard of Oz

Jurassic Park

Available to own forever at knoxandjamie.shop.

You can also hear our bonus episode for this collection on 2019's Little Women, exclusive to The Popcast Patreon, by clicking here.

In this episode, we're tackling a way to sort some reads into 3 easy categories:

Chore: an objectively successful and popular book we felt was a chore to get through

Whore: an unpopular book we actually enjoyed a lot

Score: a backlist book (2016 or earlier) we feel is underrated and should be added to your TBR

We have the honor of having 3x New York Times bestselling author and avid reader, Kendra Adachi, sit in with us for this chat while Erin is on leave.
