Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature that is hosted by Artsy Reader Girl’s Top Ten Tuesday. This week was a choice based on books and TV/Movie. I chose 10 books I love that need to become a Movies.
Six of Crows and Crooked Kingdom
Don’t talk to me about Netflix cramming all five books that make sup Shadow and Bone plus the Six of Crows Duology into eight episodes. This worries more and more with each passing day. Not the same. These books deserve their own, separate due.
The Folk of The Air Series
I would say this series would do well on HBO until I saw episode five of Game of Thrones. No one needs to become the Mad Queen…
The Arc of the Scythe Trilogy (Third Book- The Toll Out November 5th)
Where there’s a will…. there might just be a way? See the link above! The Thunderhead might just get his day in the theaters via Universal Pictures. And if it happens, I am there for it! One favor, just one? Please leave the Arch alone, eh?
This is Where it Ends
Another one that might have some legs to the rumor (see the link). This is Where it Ends was timely when it came out and unfortunately for all of us remains just as timely now. It is also brilliantly written and leaves readers wrecked. A movie would undoubtedly do the same.
Allegedly, Monday’s Not Coming and Let Me Hear a Rhyme
If you didn’t see this coming you weren’t paying attention. And yes. All three books need to be optioned. NOW. If you need to know why, click the link. I humbly laid it all for everyone.
For a Muse of Fire
I can’t wait to get my hands on Kingdom for a Stage but I’m going to safely assume it will live up to the series debut. Between the stunning visuals and the bi-polar representation and epic story telling? This series is ripe for the big screen.
They Both Die At the End
Don’t come at me with the cheating thing. First, it is a series not a movie. Second, it JUST happened. I wanted this to happen since I first read the book when it first came out. So no it isn’t cheating. I’m just really happy HBO picked it up. As long as no one goes on a fire breathing Dragon killing spree.
With three books under Tiffany Jackson – that is 10 books I love that should be movies. — Do you agree? Disagree? What books do you wan to see become movies?
You’re so right about that GoT Episode… I was NOT impressed ????
What they did didnt bother me. I just dont need it mucking up some of my favorite characters lol. Dany was gonna be what she was gonna be. Now if Jon jumped the shark like that? That would be some real reason to throw down lol.
Allegedly would make such a great movie. Honestly, all of your choices were great this week!
My TTT.
Thank you! I seriously think Tiffany Jackson and Shonda Rimes need to have a little pow-wow
OK I totally agree with They Both Die At The End although I’m a bit nervous for that. And they really cram all Grisha books together? Whyyyyyy? So grateful I canceled Netflix hahahahaha. My TTT: https://www.lauriesbookshelf.com/booktalk/en-top-ten-tuesday-books-turned-into-movies-tv-series/
I dont know how they will do it either but they did do an amazing job with umbrella Academy so I have to wait and see… and pray
I keep praying you are right but they keep saying 8 episodes and I throw up in my mouth a little. I’m not against the turn Dany’s character took. I will be more pissed if Jon doesn’t call her out on it. His character has been true to his core from the beginning and you could see how pissed he was. Dany and Greyworm really both went batshit crazy.
Anyway my only point was that I dont need Inej going full tilt on some jurda created maniacal creature lol.
I think he and Tyrian will. And dont forget Arya. She can’t be happy either. She saw a lot. As much as she hated Kings Landing.. she hated the Lannisters. She wanted Cersi dead… not all those people.
