Question of the Week: What book/series do you think would make a better TV show than a movie? 

Sarah's Pick 

I think the Gallagher Girls series would make a great tv show! We would get to see more spy classes, more of Cammie and the gang getting into mischief, and more of Zack and Mr. Solomon! Although, I wouldn't mind if they came out with a movie as well. ;)

 Christina's Pick

I always thought that Vampire Academy and Bloodlines would make a much better tv show than it would a movie. They could spend a season on one or two books alone. There are so many different things they could do to expand the series and make it longer for television.

Top 10 Books Christina Tells Me I Must Read

Christina is always finding a new book that she loves and wants me to read and I keep putting them off for some reason, but lately I’ve have read some of them: Wicked Lovely, The Scorpio Races, and Across the Universe. Now I just need to read the rest. Here are ten more on the list.

 

Anna and the French Kiss

This is one of those books that she has been bugging me for years to read. It’s on my August TBR list! I promise!

Fray

So, this really isn’t a format that I enjoy reading but even my dad thought it was okay and he doesn’t read fiction. It’s futuristic Buffy ‘verse so I don’t know why I’m hesitating.

The Curiosities

Quite honestly, college has ruined most short stories for me. But Christina insists that these are different and more interesting than the ones I was forced to read in class. I’ve flipped through the book and it looks awesome and well put together…. I just need to read the stories now. (Christina: yeah, they’re more supernatural based, and morbid and creepy :D ) 

Woman in White

I want to read this. Everyone tells me that it is awesome. I have one paperback and one audiobook of it. I need to read it. It’s just really, really long.

Armadale

I am willing to try anything by Wilkie Collins but it’s just so hard for me to start classics. It always takes me so long to get through them.

White Cat

I started this one time at the lake but I was having a hard time getting into it and didn’t get past the first couple chapters. I’ll try again sometime.

Tarnish

I like historical fiction so I should enjoy trying this… I’m just a little nervous of the Tudors. (Christina: Plus, I promise there is a bickering couple.)

The Summoning

I liked the Darkness Rising trilogy and there is a slight crossover with this series so I really want to read it—just not as much as the other books I’m reading now.

Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society

I’m not a big fan of books in epistolary format but after reading some of the quotes from Goodreads I am now much more interested than I used to be.

1984

I like dystopians and this is like their king so it stands to reason that I should read this… I just haven’t yet.
