Tag Questions:
1. Actions speak louder than words. A book that wasn't or couldn't be better than the film.
2. The grass is always greener on the other side. A rags to riches, or a riches to rags, story.
3. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. A parent-child relationship you loved.
4. You can't judge a book by its cover. A great book that NEEDS a better cover.
5. You can't please everyone. A book you hated/loved that everyone else loves/hates.
6. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. A book you are a better person for having read.
7. Love is blind. A book with a disabled character, or actual "blind love."
8. Ignorance is bliss. A book you know is bad but don't want to admit it, or a book you don't want to read in case it's bad.
9. There is no time like the present. Your favourite contemporary book.
10. Better safe than sorry. A book you don't want to read in case it's bad, or vice versa.
