Books into Movies - Feb 15, 2013

When I was trying to think of something to get Brenda for her birthday, I ran across a list of books that were going to be movies this year. I ended up getting her Beautiful Creatures, World War Z, and Mortal Instruments: City of Bones. Today we went to see Beautiful Creatures. It is a good movie, but like many others, didn't totally follow the book. Matthew came with us and he said he enjoyed the movie. Here are the others that I found with specific dates for this year:
