Not me. If I like a book so much and I find out the movie is available, I'll see the movie before finishing the book.

I definitely like to finish the book first. I like to imagine everything in my head first before it is given to me on screen.

Finishing the book first is an absolute must for me, especially if there is a potential twist involved. But, I understand that sometimes the movie comes out and you'd rather join in the crowd and catch the movie while it is topical. For example, if I were reading Frankenstein and a new movie came out, I wouldn't wait unti I had finished the book.

I don't. I just watch the movie and let whatever happens happen. If the movie is good, I won't need to read the book first.

Me. I usually read the book first before watching the movie adaptation because that way I would know about the internal thoughts or background of a character while I'm watching the movie based on the additional information about them from the book.

I first finish reading the book before watching the movie. The movie is so original and movie is always an edited version and some scripts sometimes are changed.

I always wait to finish the book before I watch the movie because it doesn’t matter how well thay do it, It’s never going to be as good as the book and I’d like to get a general idea of the characters setting.

I do I prefer to see if the movie and book play out well and if the movie director is really good at displaying a good image of what the author wrote.

I do that. I will read the book before watching the movie. I really want to know the full story and the characters in the story. This really helps me to enjoy the movie.

Honestly, when I finish reading a book I just go and search to see if there is any movie related to it. Like for example I read The Giver by Lois Lowry a couple of months ago and I realised there was a movie about it too so I watched the movie too. So basically I try to finish a book and then go for the movie and I love to see the difference as well.

I change my preferences depending on which film/book we are talking about. Usually, if I got the book first, I go ahead until finish it and then watch the film. In series, I try to read each book before each film.

I do most of the time, but sometimes if I haven't had the chance to read it and it comes out I usually can't wait! I am not that patient of a person.

I'll read the book before the movie. The movie doesn't always capture the essence of the book, and once I know what is happening from the movie then the book loses its magic.
