![]() ![]() For instance, did anyone know Legally Blonde was a book first? Probably not, because it wasn't quite as fun. But for every bad adaptation, there's ten film's you love that you didn't even know were adapted. There are plenty of bad movie adaptations out there. I'm not saying every film adaptation beats out a book. So, when people say, "the book is always better than the movie/tv show", I always laugh and ask, "have you read it?" There's a lot revolutionary about the show. There's nothing revolutionary about this memoir. With each chapter, I waited for something exciting to happen, or for Piper to reveal some deeper truth in the way Yoga Jones spoke of the Mandala in the sand. ![]() I read it back in 2013, after I watched a few episodes of season one. If you didn't know already, Orange Is The New Black was loosely inspired by Piper Kerman's memoir of the same name. I love the diverse cast, the shifting focus of every season, and how Jenji Kohan and crew explore new ways to tell stories with each year. It wasn't my favorite season, but it was still pretty great. This past weekend, I finished Orange Is The New Black (season six). ![]()
