Yes! That is the exact reason I want a movie made. I would love to see someone interpret it visually.

None. I like books. No time for movies. They always ruin it anyway.
I agree!
The only reason I like them is that I know a lot of people who were non-readers who got interested in books after seeing a movie made from one. They wanted to know more about it.

The Kushiel series by Jaqueline Carey.
Station Breaker! Tom Cruise please!
None. Films never live up to the books for me.

Shibumi!!!!!!
They Cage the Animals at Night by Jennings Michael Burch
Some books just don’t translate well into movies. I know that when I reread a book it always seems different in my mind I
The Mitford books. Although it might do better as a television series
Well, if I enjoyed the book, I usually don’t think much of the film. On the other hand, if I didn’t like the book much, I often think the film is an improvement. So the thing would be to go for a book I didn’t care for much. If it was a book I liked, a tv series is usually better, because they don’t leave out so much.
The Shadow Land by Elizabeth Kostova, my favorite read this year. I would love to see the Bulgarian countryside and cities of this wonderful novel.
I think the Prey books (John Sanford) would make great TV, although anyone of them could be easily made into. Movie
