À propos de ce contenu audio

We’re an absolutely unhinged family of four who took our post-film discussions and love of reading and turned them into a podcast! As Christians, we love to chat about the faith implications of what we read and watch — but you can enjoy this podcast whether or not you share our faith!


We review book-to-film adaptations across genres and time periods, although you’ll probably notice we’re big sci-fi and fantasy fans. Each episode includes a comprehensive breakdown of (our opinion of) the most impactful changes from page to film, trivia about the book and film, and our final verdicts about whether or not the book is *actually* better.

      S03E09 — The Housemaid
      Jan 9 2026

      Trust no one. Especially the people who pay you. In this episode of The Book Is Better, we dive into The Housemaid, a psychological thriller that keeps twisting the knife just when you think you’re safe. We cover deeply uncomfortable power dynamics and jaw-dropping reveals.Come unpack what works so well in the book and how the movie adapts those moments for maximum gasp-factor. Expect multiple moments of “wait… WHAT?” because this story does not play fair.

    • S03E09 — How The Grinch Stole Christmas

      S03E09 — How The Grinch Stole Christmas
      Dec 30 2025

      You’re a mean one… or are you? We are looking at How the Grinch Stole Christmas in all its forms, from the perfectly concise Dr. Seuss book to the iconic 1966 special, the chaotic Jim Carrey version, and the surprisingly heartfelt 2018 animated film. We debate villain backstories, Cindy Lou Who’s glow-up, Max being the real MVP, and why this story still hits us right in the feelings. Cozy, chaotic, and full of Christmas cheer, this episode proves the Grinch might just have the biggest heart of all.

    • S03E08 — Paddington

      S03E08 — Paddington
      Dec 16 2025

      Grab a marmalade sandwich and your coziest sweater, because we’re talking Paddington! This week, we compare the delightfully episodic book to the movie that said, “Yes, but what if we add a villain, a heist, and emotional growth?” From bath-time disasters and escalator confusion to found family, British charm, and one very polite bear, we break down why both versions work so well—and why this story somehow feels like a warm hug wrapped in a duffle coat.
