One for the Money
Janet Evanovich's series about Bounty Hunter Stephanie Plum tops the bestsellers lists every year. Each book has a number in the title. One for the Money, starring Katherine Heigl as Stephanie Plum, is another worst movie and did not top the charts.

The Hunger Games
It seems as if every new cast member that was announced for The Hunger Games movie got a new story in entertainment magazines. Perhaps that's because the books are fantastic, and the movie did keep its promise, but with a different ending. Further, the movie and the book has a lot of difference in between that compels you to go for both. My suggestion is to go for book and then watch the movie.

The Lucky One
The Lucky One is an adaptation of Sparks' 2008 novel by the same name. It is the story of a man who finds a picture of a woman and then tries to find the woman because he thinks the picture is bringing him luck. But the movie failed to keep the Spark and became one of the biggest flops of 2012.

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter
Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter by Seth Grahame-Smith turns the life of one of America's most respected presidents into a Gothic nightmare. Funny? Gross? Probably depends on your sense of humor. There is enough of a following for this book, though, to turn it into a movie.
