I don't actually really mind which comes first. Sometimes I'll read the book first and sometimes I'll watch the adaptation first. And sometimes, like with Bridgerton, both!<br /><br />If I've seen a good adaptation before I've read the book and it's a "give-away" plot, I won't even read the books. But if it's the other way around, I might most probably still watch the movie!Elza Readshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14147340976876251074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-612320880156366525.post-89400418732594388932021-01-24T16:40:33.965+02:002021-01-24T16:40:33.965+02:00Hi Sammie!

I do believe The Duke of Hastings might have something to do with it. One is never to old to appreciate a dashingly handsome man.
