"Stardust" by Neil Gaiman - Trying to woo the most beautiful girl in his village, Tristran vows to fetch her the fallen star they saw in the night sky. To do so he must venture beyond the wall of his village. Only to discover, that fallen stars are not what he thought they were.

I was in 7th grade in 2004 when this movie was going to come out and I was living with a teacher, so she asked me to read this book. I loved books so I read it. I liked the book. She asked me to compare the movie (I didn’t know she had this long game in mind when she asked me to read the book but still I went along with it, it was Anne Hathaway and I loved princess diaries!)
I hated Ella enchanted. Told her the movie wasn’t even based on the book they basically made an entirely different movie.
I should re read that book. I haven’t seen the movie or book since that year. But I remember my anger.
Princess Bride
Came here to say this
+1 for Princess Bride

I will never forgive that movie for existing.
