Did You Know These Were Books First?

I was surprised to come across the book Invisible by Mats Wahl a few days ago. I remember that the movie came out a few years ago but I didn't know that it was a book. I started thinking about some of the other movies that were originally books. We all know about Harry Potter, the Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants, and the Lord of the Rings but did you know about these:

Beastly by Alex Flinn

It's Kind of a Funny Story by Ned Vizzini

Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan

Scott Pilgrim by Bryan Lee O'Malley

Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen by Dyan Sheldon

How to Deal based on two books by Sarah Dessen - That Summer and Someone Like You

The Mighty based on Freak the Mighty by W. R. Philbrick - another bit of trivia: this movie was filmed mostly in Cincinnati.
