re: Would you rather read a book or watch a 2 hour movie that the book is about?

I’d much rather read the book

Don't watch much TV, but been enjoying the Bosch series lately. IMO, the Bosch books from Michael Connelly are hands down the best detective book series. And they didn't "Hollywood-ize" the TV version too much.

Tried to watch the CJ Box Joe Pickett series, but it's is really woke compared to the books. It's not well cast unfortunately.

I do enjoy watching what Hollywood does with books, however, so I can complain about it. Like most Stephen King books. But some they do get right, like The Shining.

I always have 4-5 books stacked on my nightstand, fiction and non-fiction.
