Top Ten Tuesday: Books to Movies

Often when I'm reading a book I'll think, wow! This would make SUCH a good movie! Now that The Broke and the Bookish are asking for a list of just such desires, I can't think of which ones I've recently thought that about. So, I've looked over some of my favorite books, thinking about them with regard to movies, and here's what I've come up with:

Top Ten Books I Wish Would Become a Movie

1. Pope Joan...I heard once this was going to be a movie, but I've never seen anything more about it
2. Katherine by Anya Seton.... epic love story on the screen!
3. The Shadow of the Wind... I think this would an awesome movie mixing the bookish fanaticism, the love story and the horror all in one!
4. The Historian... let's see some REAL vampire stuff and maybe learn something too
5. Partials... here's a more recent read that I think would make a fun movie
6. The Name of the Wind... we know from the Game of Thrones success that people love watching epic fantasies come to life
7. The Night Circus... I think this would make a beautiful movie

And some that ARE being made movies:

8. Ender's Game
9. The Book Thief
10. Life of Pi

All that being said, having a favorite book be turned into a movie is a scary scary thing. And those three listed right above? Ah, I'm so nervous. Please people, do a good job with them!

What books would you like to see as a movie? Does it make you nervous when it actually DOES become one?
