The Mythos Academy series by Jennifer Estep is a favourite of mine because of the focus on teenage life and mythology. I would really love to see this as a movie.
And in the end, we were all just humans... Drunk on the idea that love, only love, could heal our brokenness.

Anything James Rollins would make an amazing blockbuster. I also think the Pendergast series by Prest and Child would adapt well to the big screen given the scenery and the supernatural elements in most of the novels.

I would really love for these three books to be seen on the big screen --- "Penryn & the End of Days” trilogy by Susan Ee: ANGELFALL, WORLD AFTER, and END OF DAYS. I truly am a HUGE fan of this trilogy, so I hope that if ever there would come a time that they would finally make these books into movies, I would just hope and pray that the film production would do justice to portray the story and the characters in the book properly, so as not to ruin these amazing books’ great image.

I would like to see 'The Five People You Meet in Heaven' by Mitch Albom turned into a movie. I think there is a movie out but its a made for television movie and doesn't seem to have done the book justice judging by the reviews. One of my literature teachers recommended it to me and I'm glad I bothered to buy it. I usually don't reread my books unless I've forgotten the storyline but I would gladly reread this book anytime.

Has anyone read the Darkest Minds series? And excited for the movie coming out this summer? I haven't actually read the books but I know a lot of people have and enjoyed them. I hope the movie is great because I'll probably watch it before I read the books.

A part of me would love to see Kate Daniels by Ilona Andrews adapted but another part of me is terrified that is will be awful. Another one is the Throne of Glass series but again, it needs to be done really well.

As soon as I have finished reading The Selection until The Crown by Keira Cass, I have been wanting a movie adaptation of the series. To begin with, I'm sure it is not just me who have been seeing a chapter in the book into an actual movie scene especially the cheesy ones and of course who does not want to see the courageous and soft America slaying with her amazing sense of fashion. I lived for America and Maxon's love story for who knows how long. The plot is really interesting for it is set in an era where people watch royalties fall in love every step of the way. And also how people fight for what they think is right and just not just for them but for others as well.

I was going to say Midnight's Children by Salman Rushdie, but apparently the movie was already made. It's so hard to find books that haven't been adapted into films and even harder to find movies that were not books. So, I'm stumped.

I would love to see the Touched Series by Elisa S. Amore done into a movie. This was a great series that keeps you on edge until the last book.
Also the Runes Series by Ednah Walters. Unfortunately she has passed away but her books are so incredible and so emotional to read.
Lastly, The Afterlife Series by Stephanie Hudson. This series is intense. It is a long series of books but I am sure with the right director and screen writer, they could do this justice.

I would love to see “I am not your perfect Mexican daughter” or “Monday’s not coming” made into a movie.
