I always get a bit apprehensive when it comes to movie adaptations of books, especially ones I love, if the essence of the book is not captured fully. I know Half of A Yellow Sun has already had some controversy with the casting of Thandie Newton as an Igbo woman, which I'm not going to go into in this post. That aside, I'm really looking forward to how it turns out. I might just read it again just to refresh my memory :).
