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.

  1. 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.

The Sunday Post!

Welcome back! Today I am taking part in the weekly memes  The Sunday Post hosted by caffeinatedbookreviewer and Stacking The Shelves hosted by .tyngasreviews . I have had a great time coming up with the updates for these posts in the last few weeks and so I will keep doing them. Life This week was crazy for me because I had a a work blog due. While I enjoyed doing the post, it was more research than I had allotted for, so I just needed to spend more time on the blog than normal. Other than that it was an easy week. I got some read in and I got a new chapter up for my fanfic. Yesterday, we spent a lot of time in the backyard and shoveling stone for the yard. Read I just finished China Rich Girlfriend earlier today! All For One Alex &Eliza #3 is still so much fun and I think it is my favorite book of the trilogy still. Currently, I am on page 184/391 I read some The Princess and the Fangirl and I am 50% done. Rather than pushing it for the next few days, I deci...

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.  ...

The Sunday Post!

Welcome back! Today I will link up to  The Sunday Post  hosted by  /caffeinatedbookreviewer  and Stacking the Shelves hosted by  tyngasreviews . Life This week was busier than usual because I ended up going to Peter Pan Jr rehearsals in the afternoon so I could  work with the music cues. The show opens this coming Friday, and this week is Tech Week, which is a four days where the cast will be able to work with lights, sound, mics, costumes, makeup, and basically run the show and get notes. The cast is 3rd-8th graders. I've been helping for years and I love it, although because I love Peter Pan, I have a soft spot for this show in particular. Other than that it was a relaxing week. Read I started Rich People Problems by  Kevin Kwan on Monday. I am 21% done, and I already love this book. I might not love it as much as I loved China Rich Girlfriend, but it's still early.  All For One was the plan to finish last week, but I still have ...
