#WorldBookDay playlist: Earworms for all you bookworms
These are the songs that bring books to life

MANILA, Philippines – Happy World Book Day!

Our love for books have come a long way. Movie adaptations of our favorite tomes are now a dime a dozen, giving us an extra opportunity to enjoy their stories again and again.

And with these adaptations come awesome soundtracks, which not only complement what’s on the silver screen, but what’s in the original texts, too!

To help celebrate World Book Day with a twist, we asked our readers to share their favorite original soundtracks (OSTs) for movies based on books. Here’s what we gathered: 

 

Have you read Bridget Jones’ Diary by Helen Fielding? Keep the throwback feelings with “Out of Reach” by Gabrielle!

  

Do you consider Nicholas Sparks’ A Walk to Remember as one of your old school favorites? Listen to “Cry” by Mandy Moore!

 

Another Nicolas Sparks favorite is The Last Song! Jam away with Miley Cyrus’ “When I Look at You”!

 

Are you a fan of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Great Gatsby? Here’s Lana Del Rey with “Young and Beautiful.”

 

Can’t get enough of The Twilight Saga by Stephenie Meyer? Let Christina Perry sing you “A Thousand Years.”

 

Is The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins part of your book collection? Check out this song by Taylor Swift, entitled “Safe and Sound.”

 

Sing along to Ed Sheeran’s “All of the Stars!” From John Green’s Fault in Our Stars 

 

Do you feel like listening to an upbeat “What If” by Colbie Caillat? Here’s a song from Lise Friedman’s Letters to Juliet.

 

Are you into coming of age novels such as The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky? Play Imagine Dragons’ “It’s Time!”

 

Were you one of those who followed E. L. James’ 50 Shades of Grey? Keep Ellie Goulding’s “Love Me Like You Do” on repeat!
