Books are most usually better than their relevant, derivative movies. Books let you imagine the settings and the events happening in the stories. They are also more detailed than movies because movies sometimes must leave out some important details. Movies tend to last about two hours, while book readng takes time and lasts longer. There are cases in which it would really be impossible for Hollywood to work miracles. For example, Tennessee Williams was a great writer @Streetcar Named Desire, but he wrote a number of bad books that no director, however good, could possibly rescue.
