♛Books That Should Be Turned Into Movies♛

Hello my lovely followers, the new year has begun and I would like to share a couple of books that I think should be adapted to movies. If you have any other suggestions for books that should be made into movies, then leave a comment below telling me why it should be adapted.

1. The Battle of the Labyrinth

By Rick Riordan

After The Sea of Monsters movie, I still think The Percy Jackson Series could continue. if it continued, then the next book ,as seen above, could be adapted by staying true to the plot of the book and to keep the main cast but, get a better director.

2. Cinder

By Marissa Meyer

I recently read Cinder and it has come to my attention that this book and it's sequel's should be adapted to a movie. Cinder has a great story that almost anybody would relate to and it is set in an apocalyptic time, which has been a trend in some major movies and it has a fairytale twist that some of us would love to watch. On a side note, I think the role of Queen Levana would be Vanessa Hudgens or Nina Dobrev because that was my initial thought when I read about the Queen. Also, Ellie Goulding would be a great addition to the movie soundtrack such as the song Burn.

3. Linger

By Maggie Stiefvater

I was in class and a couple of my class mates were talking about this book and I was surprised they heard of it. When I bring this book up in a conversation not many people have heard of it. When I looked this book over, I though that this would be great story to turn into a movie because it has the supernatural-forbidden-love-story that many young adults would be interested and I think Taylor Lautner would like to reprise another werewolf role.

4. Looking For Alaska

By John Green

With the success of The Fault In Our Stars and the up coming movie adaptation Paper Towns, I think it's safe to say that John Green should consider another adaptation of his books. I might not be the only wanting for this to happen but I think John Green would possibly consider it. Not to mention, I would totally envision Logan Lerman portraying the role of Miles Halter.

5. Matched

By Ally Condie

According to Wikipedia, the film rights were bought by Disney and are in production. I hope they would release some updates such as the cast, locations, and costumes. I'm interested how they would portray the setting and most importantly the plot. Personally, I would suggest they consider Josh Hutcherson as the role of Xander because he kind of looks the part after watch Mocking Part 1.

6. Where She Went

By Gayle Forman

Not too long ago the movie If I stay ended on a bittersweet note and I think they should produce the sequel, Where She Went. The movie would be interesting to see with a different point of view and all the flashbacks that happened after the first book while, Adam and Mia spend a day together in New York.

=Reached (Book Review)=

Hello my wonderful readers! Today I'm going to review the last book from the matched series, Reached By Ally Condie. The story is told in the point of views from Cassia, Ky, and Xander. Before, Cassia finally found Ky but they are separated again. Cassia is supposed to work within the society, while Ky works outside the borders. Soon the real story is shown in a twist of events through out the dystopian world.

Overall Ranking:

There is many new characters to include but I decided to not talk much about them because it would be like giving away the plot. However this book is given, a 4.5 out of five stars because the series gave many obvious answers towards the end but there were several unexpected turns. Such as the "real" enemy isn't the rising, why Ky was put into the matching pool, and the favored memory of Cassia's grandfather. While reading this trilogy I found that the common theme was Cassia breaking from society and no longer taking their authority. Which is seen on the cover and resembles the symbol of the red pill, that is revealed in this book. I wasn't satisfied with this book because the artifacts that were mentioned in Matched wasn't given any clue to where they may be found and what happens to the world? Does the world return to it's "normal" state or does it "change" in the end? Many of my questions weren't answered but I felt some what accomplished when I finished the trilogy. I still feel the author brought many poetic images through this book but it didn't feel over bearing as Crossed and it felt like the language and tone moved swiftly with this concept. Also, the reason I was unable to finish this book was that the beginning was still boring and lagging but when I reached the turning point of the book I started to enjoy myself once again. In conclusion, you should start this trilogy because it is dystopian but has many twist and turns that I personally favorite. Please give it a try and continue following me on all my accounts listed below. Till then my readers!

♥Crossed (Book Review)♥

 

Hello again my beautiful readers! Since I previously reviewed Matched By Ally Condie I thought I could continue reviewing the trilogy because I like to continue my thoughts on each book of this series. So, in Crossed the story continues with Cassia's internal struggle between Ky and Xander. She also has trouble finding the society's enemy also known as the rebellion. Which Cassia thinks it is the only safest place to be with Ky whom she choses to be with at this point of the story. However, the story focuses on the struggle in general such as struggle between friendship, love, and most of all surviving but also breaking away from the society.

Characters:

Indie- Cassia's friend from camp who helped her escape. She is mysterious, sneaky, and a little dishonest. She wants to find the rebellion and join it by staying with Cassia.

Vick- Ky's friend from camp who escaped with Ky. He is caring and compassionate but is secretive and seemingly stoic.

Eli- Is a young boy whom Ky takes with him when he escapes from camp, because he reminds Ky of Cassia's brother, Bram. Eli is younger and weaker but he manages to keep up with Ky and Vick.

Hunter- Is a farmer from the carving, a mountain range in the outer provinces. He has lost his daughter and tries finding other farmers on their trek to someplace safe.

Overall Ranking:

I would give this book 3.5 out of 5 stars because the plot of the story was finding the rebellion by escaping the society. However, towards the larger portion of the book I found it really boring and dragging on because I didn't find it as exciting until it reached towards the reunion. Also more references towards color and imagery is really well thought out but I think it could still be less especially with these descriptions it loses my concentration towards what's happening. When you think the plot of the book gets sweeter the plot builds on towards some complications such as "How to get to the rebellion?' and "Will they ever see each other again?' this creates an illusion of anticipation for the next book. All questions will be answered in the next book, which is pretty massive but I think I can tackle them down when it comes to the review. Besides my concerns about the book, I liked several parts of the story such as the Canyon scenes and the characters finding the secret tissue lab. I would recommend this book, if your really into this series it will be a quick read but I feel like it didn't live up to my expectations but for others it's different. Till then my lovely readers I will update soon! Don't forget to follow me on my social media which is linked below!

♥Matched (Book Review)♥

 

Hello beautiful readers! Sorry for the long absence I have been busy with school and it has been a little rough but I think I should at least squeeze in a review from my finished books. As you can tell from the title I will be reviewing "Matched" By Ally Condie. This YA novel is about a perfect world referred to as the "Society" and in the book we are introduced with the main character Cassia. Which starts with her own match banquet, the match banquet is when citizen's of the society see who they are to be matched or married to. Since the society is perfect, a glitch appears in the system and leaves Cassia to question the society for she is caught to be in love with Ky, who is a society outcast, and Xander, who is her childhood friend and her match. The story unfolds with her questions and decisions of the society.

 

Characters:

 

Cassia Reyes- Is a 17 year old and is the story's main protagonist. She is matched with her old friend Xander but is caught in love with Ky. She lives with her parents and younger brother.

Xander Carrow- He is an old friend of Cassia and secretly in love with her since he can remember. He is also good friends with Ky and is known to be the golden boy and somebody to look up to. Xander is Cassia's perfect match.

Ky Markham-He is an aberration, a person who is no longer a citizen due to his fathers acts of rebellion against the society. Which caused him to live with his aunt and uncle, and their son was murdered and is something that has never happened in the society. Because he is an aberration he could never be put in the matching pool. Ky also has feelings towards Cassia even though she is matched with Xander. He is also extremely jealous of Xander.

 

Overall Ranking:

I give this book a 4 and a half out of five stars because the storyline is easy to follow. I personally find bits of the story interesting such as the society thinking they have too much culture and deciding 100 songs, 100 poems, 100 pieces of art..etc. to have kept in the society. I also like how Cassia is secretly learning how to write even though the society forbids it and how she makes up games for her little brother in order for him to go to school for the first time. Which the society does not allow anyone to behave against the society. The other part to the reason I gave this rating is that this book is written by an English teacher. Which the author makes most of the book filled with lots of imagery but I find most of it over the top such as making the character refer to the color green a lot after she wore that particular color after her match ceremony. On that side note I found Matched to be a great read and it made me want to buy the next book and I will also review that soon. I for sure recommend it to any YA, dystopian, and romance readers because it is an easy read and it makes you question what your society is like and what it might be. I hope this makes up for my absence and I will get back to reviewing soon. Be sure to follow me on here and on the sites listed bellow! Let me know what you think if you read this book or let me know if you are interested down in the comment section.
