Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and the Bookish.
Each week they will post a new Top Ten list that one of their bloggers over at The Broke and the Bookish will answer. Everyone is welcome to join.
The topic for this week is: Top Ten Books I’d love to see as a Movie or TV series
Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins [my review]- it’s adorable and I feel like I haven’t seen a good romantic comedy in ages. This would definitely fix that.
The Mediator series by Meg Cabot – I’ve loved this series since I was a teenager. I’d love to see Suze come to life on screen.
Poison Princess by Kresley Cole [my review] – Is it bad if my prime motivation for wanting this one on screen is because I adore Cajun accents?
The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight by Jennifer E Smith [my review] – it’s short and fun. Would work perfectly as a film.
Mythos Academy by Jennifer Estep [my review] – TV show with Gwen kicking butt and fighting all those glorious mythological creatures with her Spartan Man by her side!
The Moon and More by Sarah Dessen [my review]- she feels to me like her movies would be funnier versions of Nicholas Sparks movies… Sweet, heartbreaking but a bit more humour in there. They did make a Sarah Dessen movie featuring Mandy Moore but I think they can do better. They mashed up two of her books and smuched it into the one movie…. leaving out the best parts of both. That said – I still have that movie on DVD 😛
Throne of Glass by Sarah J Maas [my review]- The ultimate fantasy show. It would be watched by everyone! I also think that Falling Kingdoms by Morgan Rhodes would be great as a TV show.
Cinder by Marissa Meyer [my review]- I think I’d like this one as a movie. But Futuristic Cyborg Cinderella would be so much fun to see
Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor [my review]– I think the story is beautiful and the creatures creative. I just want more and a movie would be perfect!
AND whilst I know this is not a YA series, I’d also love to see Richelle Mead’s Georgina Kincaid series as a TV series.
That’s my top ten. I found it rather hard to pick ones that haven’t already been made into a movie/tv show or have one in the works. What books would you like to see come alive on-screen?
Looking forward to reading Daughter of Smoke & Bone soon. I know, I am SO late on that! Great list!
There’s just so many good books to read and not enough time. I have no problems with being late to read things… I know I’m so far behind on other books people love!
And when you get around to reading Daughter of Smoke and Bone, I hope you like it. I think it was my favourite read that I read last year. It’s fantastic!
The Statistical Prob. would be a perfect light and fluffy movie. It’s the perfect length and it’s super cute… plus a guy w/ British accent helps!!! Anna and the French Kiss would be cool…. and I would see any Sarah Dessen book made into a movie (but maybe NOT with Mandy Moore this time!!).
My TTT
I think my brothers bought me the movie… and they only usually buy me things they don’t think I’d like… they’re odd like that 😛
Ooohh… yes. The british accent in Stat. Prob would be fantastic! 😀 They should take our advice and film it
I haven’t read Daughter of Smoke and Bone yet, but I can’t wait to! Great choices.
The Mythos Academy as a movie would be kick-ass with all the action scenes and mythological creatures! I loved Cinder as well, but I don’t think I’d like to see the movies before all the books are out, I don’t want the movies to influence my ideas of the characters. =/ Throne of Glass would be another spectacular movie too!
Sarah Dessen’s books as movies would just be perfect. And omg, Daughter of Smoke and Bone! I bet if they do it right, it would be really beautiful on screen.
Here’s my list!
I really have to get to The Moon and More. I have had it for months and haven’t picked it up yet.
Great list.
My TTT List
Awesome list. I’ve only read Cinder so far but the others are on my TBR list. I agree I think Cinder would be amazing. Thanks for sharing! Happy reading. My TTT
I have seen Cinder on a TON of lists. I am definitely going to put it on reserve right away. The idea of Cinderella being a cyborg sounds unreal.

This is a great list! I would love to see ALL Sarah Dessen books made into movies/shows (to be honest). I have yet to see How to Deal with Mandy Moore though.
Anna and the French Kiss was on my list too! What a great romantic movie it would be. And Cinder would be fantastic as a movie. Hmmm…Georgina Kincaid, that would definitely have to be on HBO or Showtime. 🙂
