Top Ten Tuesday Book Adaptations I still need to watch



Hi! Jana hosts Top Ten Tuesday @thatartsyreadergirl.  A love of lists brought this meme about and bringing the book blogging community together. Each Week, Jana will post a prompt and we readers and bloggers will post our response. This week, the prompt is Memorable Things Characters Have Said (quotes from book characters that have stuck with you). I don’t do the quote prompts so I was looking back and I saw on The Broke and the Bookish had a prompt about Book Adaptations years ago. I wanted to do a spin on this and use a topic I’ve wanted to do for a bit now. These are book adaptations I want to watch at some point.   

1- The Baby Sisters Club

I’ve read a few of these books when I was a kid. I really enjoyed them, and I watched the movie when I was a kid /teen. I want to watch the Netflix show because I’ve heard good things about it. I love the vibes of the trailer, and what I’ve seen, I just need to start it and keep it on in the background while I work and watch the show.

2- The Sun is Also A Star

 

I have heard of this novel and I have a copy of it. I kind of want to read it before the end of the year, like add it to my TBR for next month or something. This movie looks good and it seems like a story that I would enjoy. I’m not sure if I want to read the book first or kind of watch the show as I’m reading the book.

3- The Hate U Give

This is a book I read and I want to watch the movie. I really want to see how it adapts to the book and the changes that were made for the movie. This might be the next movie I watch because I read the story recently, and it is still fresh in my mind.

4- The Life of Pi

I’ve never read this book but I’ve seen this adaption around. I kind of get the vibes of The Jungle Book in some ways, and I like that movie. I’m not sure if this is streaming or not but I want to watch it.

 5- Moxie

This movie came out on Netflix a year ago or earlier this year, I believe. I’ve never read the book but I love the vibes of the movie that I’ve seen in the trailer. The story seems like something that I would enjoy.

6- A Wrinkle in Time

I have not read this book either. I keep seeing this movie on my Disney + Recs page and I feel like I would enjoy it even if I haven’t read the book.

7- Black Beauty

 I loved the story when I read it in college and when I was on the Disney + page looking for the title for A Wrinkle in Time, this popped up. I want to see how this compares to the book because I really enjoyed the book.

8- Little Women (2019)- 

This is a movie I keep telling myself I will watch and never do. I know many enjoy this, so I want to watch it and see if I enjoy it as much as others have. I really love the book, so I hope it lives up to the hype of the book for me.

9- Gone With the Wind

I wanted to put a classic movie on this list. I don’t really know the story of this because I’ve never seen it or read the book even though I do like old movies and classic books.

10- Emma

 

I know this came out last year or late 2019. I have started this novel but I want to restart it. I watched a web series that set the characters in a modern setting which I loved. I was not really feeling the book, but I wonder if it was because I just wasn’t in the mood for the story.

    Baby Sitters Club sounds like it could be really fun, and I didn't know Netflix had adapted Moxie!

    I've seen Gone With The Wind years ago. I bet it'd be fun to revisit.

Top Ten Tuesday- Holiday / Seasonal Freebie- Memorable characters of 2020

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana  @thatartsyreadergirl . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we book bloggers will post a reply to the topic. This week, it's a seasonal / winter freebie. I kind of went rogue in a way. In the winter you see the end of the year best-of lists, and that's exactly what I did with this post. You will find subsections to indicate the genre each book is in.  YA Contemporary 1- Pepper from Tweet Cute by Emma Lord Tweet Cute was a novel I read in September. I fell hard for the major character, Pepper. She was so sweet, and she wanted so much to lice her own life.  As a bonus, she baked, and I seem to really love characters who bake. Pepper made this list because she wanted to live her own life for her, and I really admire that quality in a person. 2- Sophie from 10 Blind Dates by Ashley Elston I’m in the middle of this book right now, but I ...

Top Ten Tuesday- characters that remind me of myself

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! This is a weekly meme where readers discuss ten or whatever number you would like to have based on a prompt. Our host is Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl . Our topic this week is Characters Like Myself. I am going to take a two words that each character has in in my opinion,  and discuss how that relates to me  as well. 1- Cather Avery from Fangirl Writer- At her core, Cath is a writer, and she loves her stories. I am a writer of both Fan Fiction and original stories like Cath so this was an automatic in for this. Both of us love our work and we tend to through ourselves whole hardheartedly into our work. Sisters- I might have mentioned this on the blog before but I have a younger sister and we’re only roughly 18 months a part. Cath and her twin sister Wren are polar  opposites and this is me and my sister. My younger sister is an extrovert and into science. I on the other hand,  am an introverted creative bookworm.  ...

Top Ten Tuesday - Top Ten Historical

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! Our Host is Jana @thatartsyreadergirl . Every week, readers gather and respond to the topic of  the week. This week, we are talking about Top Ten Books in our favorite genre. I love The Classics, YA of all kinds minus Horror and Mystery, and Historical. I choose Historical as I talk about Classics and YA a lot on this blog. These are in no order, just as they came to me. 1- Romanov  by Nadine Brandes I read this Anastasia retelling in nineteen days when it came out. I loved this book so much! About half the novel was the Romanov’s in exile, and their life in a house where they couldn’t do that much. As the story progresses, we see that Nastya is a spell master, so this is how Fantasy is sprinkled in with the Historical Fiction to tell a new story. I loved all aspects of this novel, even the ones that were sad, and almost caused me to throw this book across the room. I will review this book later on this month. I recommend this for any...
