This has not failed me once. The ones that come to mind are... 

- The Big Short and Money Ball
- Girl with a Dragon Tattoo (and others)
- The Davinci Code, Inferno, and Angels & Demons
- Fight Club and Choke
- Avatar: The Movie to Avatar The Series (...I know, I know)

You are just more likely to forgive the film for misrepresentations and creative liberties when you were introduced to the story first.

If you enjoy the film, the book will give you a slower, more intimate burn of what you enjoyed and more!

Good point. I have never tried this method! I have never read a book after watching the movie, while I have seen a lot of movies after reading the book.

Did you really enjoy the book after you had seen the movie?
