Blogger Hop (4)

Info- "In the spirit of the Twitter Friday Follow, the Book Blogger Hop is a place just for book bloggers and readers to connect and share our love of the written word! This weekly BOOK PARTY is an awesome opportunity for book bloggers to connect with other book lovers, make new friends, support each other, and generally just share our love of books! It will also give blog readers a chance to find other book blogs to read! So, grab the logo, post about the Hop on your blog, and start HOPPING through the list of blogs that are posted in the Linky list below!!" Crazy-for-Books»»

This week's question comes from Jessica from a Great Read, who asked, "What book(s) would you like to see turned into a movie?"

So, I'm going to answer--not with the totally obvious Iron Fey series, since it's like one of the best set of books ever!--with Firelight by Sophie Jordan! (Read my thoughts!)

One of the things that I mentioned in my blog post about Firelight was that the world of the draki and the magnificence of the draki themselves was the biggest pull to this novel. Imagining the book being transcribed to the big screen leaves me shaking in anticipation! The vivid colors...dragonlike creatures flying in the sky...and then someone gorgeous would be bound to play Will! I'm more than sure that Firelight would make a spectacular film!

Rules for Blogger Hop:
  • Your blog should have content related to books, including, but not limited to book reviews.
  • Head over to http://www.crazy-for-books.com/ and enter your book blog link in the Linky List below.
  • Post about the Hop on your blog and answer this week's featured question.
  • Visit other blogs in the Linky List!

And that's it for this week's blogger hop! What are you thinking? Ever wonder what kind of books would make mind-boggling, awesome movies (i.e. I Am Number Four, The Mortal Instruments, The Hunger Games, etc.)? But, even if you could visualize a certain book making its way onto the big screen, would you go see it? A lot of times, fans of series or novels tend to steer away from the movie re-creation for fear of disliking it or being disappointed by it. Would you fall under that category? Let me know what your thinking, ladies and males, I'm all ears. Also, I'd love to know what you think about the new layout. :)

So, have FUN bouncing around the blogosphere visiting the numerous blogs participating in this week's blogger hop! And I wish you a wonderful weekend! Be safe and happy reading!

@Rhianon,

Yes, do look out for it! I thought it was a pretty good read.

Thanks for stopping by!

I haven't read FIRELIGHT yet, but I plan to. :) I've heard amazing things about it. I saw it in the library my last visit, but I already had too many books and I didn't want to overload myself like I use to, so I just gawked at the gorgeous cover and went my way.

I'll have to go see what you thought about it in your review now. :)

@Vintage Bookworm,
I know how that feels, believe me. I'm actually just getting used to picking three books at a time only from the library. I hope you get your shot at it reading it though!
