Movies into Books into Movies into Books into Movies into Books

I had a Two Movie weekend. I saw Social Network - it was first called The Social Network but they dropped it - and if you have seen the movie you'll chuckle at my poor joke, maybe. From the book by Ben Mezrich.

And I saw Red, surprised to read in the opening credits it's a DC Comic!

Jill Recommends: Place a Hold on the Book through our catalog (link on the right.) Don't waste your time on a futile perusal of shelves filled with everything But That Book That You Really Wanted . . .
