Confession:  The biggest motivator for me to read a book is that it is soon to be a movie.  That was the case with The Time Traveler's Wife, Twilight, Marley and Me, Eat Pray Love, Water for Elephants, and now Something Borrowed.  I wish that I was really good at choosing books that would later become loved by others, but I don't.  I am a totally follower when it comes to books.
