TOP 5 WEDNESDAY (#8): BOOKS I WANT AS TV SHOWS




"I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book." 


Groucho Marx








*Top 5 Wednesday was created by two amazing booktubers: Lainey at Ginger Reads Lainey and Samantha at Thoughts on Tomes. If you want to participate, you can join the Goodreads Group to be updated on the topics for each week. Check it out!






Throne of Glass and Unwind were going to top the list, but I just read that the first is going to be a tv show and the second one a movie so... OMG. OMG. OMG. OMG. OMG. 



1. The Lunar Chronicles Series by Marissa Meyer






"Even in the Future the Story Begins with Once Upon a Time."


Once Upon a Time has been on tv for a long time, so it's clear that people love to watch fairy tale retellings. This series is one of my favorites and I would LOVE to see it on tv. Pretty please?



2. Six of Crows Series by Leigh Bardugo






"No mourners. No funerals. Among them, it passed for 'good luck."


I've only read the first one, but I've fallen in love already. I think these characters and this story deserve more than 90 minutes, right? Yep.



3. Gone Series by Michael Grant






"Welome to Perdido beach, where our motto is: Radiation, what radiation?"


This story is really long and there's a bunch of characters, there's no way they can do six movies and make money out of them. But they can do a pretty great show.



4. Delirium Series by Lauren Oliver






"I love you. Remember. They cannot take it."


I know they tried to do it already, but I heard the first episode was the first book (like all of it), and that's pretty ridiculous, honestly. If they tried again and they do it well, I think it could be a great show.



5. Percy Jackson and the Olympians Series by Rick Riordan






"If my life is going to mean anything, I have to live it myself."


I haven't seen the movies, but almost everybody say they're quite terrible. Maybe they could try again, with more hours to expand the story and give the characters more depth. Maybe?

  1. The Lunar Chronicles would work really well as a TV show, I agree. I haven't heard of the Six of Crows series yet, is it worth reading in that case?
