books to movies

Ellie Kemper, Luke Grimes and Nico Santos star in this week's movie: Happiness for Beginners. Desperately trying to reinvent herself after her divorce, Helen signs up for a beginners group hike on the Appalachian Trail. She's surprised and not so excited to see an old friend among the hiking group's merry band of misfits. 

You can check out this movie on Netflix, and tune in today for our thoughts!

The Golden Compass…here’s the plot because Oscar and Carl still don’t know what is going on:

Lyra Belacqua (Dakota Blue Richards) lives in a parallel world in which human souls take the form of lifelong animal companions called daemons. Dark forces are at work in the girl's world, and many children have been kidnapped by beings known as Gobblers. Lyra vows to save her best friend, Roger, after he disappears too. She sets out with her daemon, a tribe of seafarers, a witch, an ice bear and a Texas airman on an epic quest to rescue Roger and save her world.

Soooooo, yeah who would watch that huh?!

We're watching Crazy Rich Asians this week! Economics professor and lifelong New Yorker, Rachel Chu, goes to Singapore with her boyfriend Nick to meet his family and attend a friend's wedding. There's just one problem. Nick never mentioned that he was rich, crazy rich, and Rachel is not at all prepared to be part of his world. She's left feeling like the villain in a soap opera trying to steal the eligible bachelor all of the more qualified women want. We watched this movie on Amazon Prime and HBO. It's starring a lot of people: Constance Wu, Henry Golding, Michelle Yeoh, Awkwafina and Ken Jeong to name a few!

Welcome to Episode 10 of the Westmoreland Podcast!

In this episode we talk about some of our favorite movie adaptations of books we love and like and what we look for in movies. We also ask all our listeners to fill out our listener survey and talk about the next season of the podcast and things we’re looking forward to changing (and keeping the same!).

Stuff We Mention

• Our Season 1 Listener Survey...please go take a look and fill it out!
• The podcast's Linktree (on our Instagram too, @westmorelandpodcast)
• Easton Press Books and Juniper Books (we're not sponsored, we just like them!)
• Manga, Japanese writing style we briefly discuss.
• Lisse’s pants that threw Heidi off so much…. (in the bloopers! So listen to the end)

Books We Mention

• The Red Rising Series, by Pierce Brown
• Kiki’s Delivery Service, Eiko Kadono
• The Murmur of Bees, Sofia Segovia (translated by Simon Bruni)
• Jim the Boy, Tony Earley

Movies We Mention

• Secondhand Lions
• Pride & Prejudice
• Little Women
• Julie & Julia
• The Devil Wears Prada
• Dune
• Jane Eyre
• Holes
• The Lord of the Rings
• The Hobbit
• Where’d You Go, Bernadette

Lisse’s recommendation: Dune, by Frank Herbert
Heidi’s recommendation: Where’d You Go, Bernadette? by Maria Semple

Next up for Heidi: Wearing God, by Lauren F Winner
Next up for Lisse: Listen, Slowly, by Thanhha Lai

Stuff We Missed
Dune is actually a trilogy… now the ending makes a little more sense... well actually it's a 6 book series. So Lisse found another series unintentionally! And cannot survive without reading the others. Let her know if you have it and want to sell the whole series to her… :) 

Our next episode is scheduled to release March 12th, 2021 and we’ve invited our husbands, Benji and Alex, to talk with us on the podcast...and it’s going to be so funny! Happy reading!
