Yes, the word “movie” does appears twice in a row in the title of The Peanuts Movie Movie Novelization, at least if you go by the book’s spine.

Is it any good? Don’t ask me, I haven’t read the thing. I don’t want the movie spoiled! But I own it, of course. Because buying books that I am not about to read, that’s a symptom of my madness.
