Top Ten Books That You Think Deserve Their Own TV Show

(In no particular order)

1. Soulless by Gail Carriger
I can only judge by the manga since I haven't read the series yet, but a steampunk paranormal anime series would be most welcome on television.

2. Paranormalcy by Kiersten White
Supernatural dramedy, 'nuff said.

3. The List by Siobhan Vivian
One of my most-watched yet not well-known series was Popular, and I think The List as a television show could be the next generation.

4. Intertwined by Gena Showalter
With all that is going on in this series, I'm surprised it's not a television series already.

5. Enchanted Forest Chronicles by Patricia Wrede
This was a hilarious quartet, and I think we need more comedic fantasy television series.

6. Shadow Falls Series by C.C. Hunter
So many great television series took place at camp, so why not Shadow Falls Camp, too?

7. Obsidian by Jennifer L. Armentrout
While I haven't read this book yet (though I'm DYING to), I think we need more sci-fi television series, and I think Daimon would make a perfect addition to the hot alien list.

8. A Brush of Darkness by Allison Pang
I see this one as a cross between The Dresden Files, Supernatural. and Buffy: The Vampire Slayer.

9. Ruby Red by Kerstin Gier
Time-traveling isn't just for doctors these days, and time-hopping sounds like a great means of travel.

I was only able to think of 9 this time, but I'm sure everyone has some great ideas for books that deserve their own television shows. ^_^

Top Ten All Time Favorite Characters in Books

1. Sam Roth from Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater

 It's sweet, adorable, and romantic Sam, how can readers who loved Shiver not love him?

2. Sean Kendrick from The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater

He's great with horses and knows what he wants to do, working hard for it.

3. Yelena and Valek from the Study Trilogy by Maria V. Snyder

Okay, so I'm cheating here a bit, but you can't really have one without the other. Just not possible with this dynamic duo.

4. Bigwig from Watership Down by Richard Adams

Yeah, I'm such a sucker for a tough guy who eventually shows his softer side (even if he's a rabbit, he's still Captain of the Watership owsla).

5. Aahz from The Myth series by Robert Asprin

He kind of goes hand in hand with Bigwig, tough exterior but you know he really worries about Skeeve and wants him to succeed.  (He's the green guy in the middle.)

6. Alanna from Song of the Lioness quartet by Tamora Pierce

She wants to be a knight in a world that wouldn't accept that all while saving the kingdom one book at a time. How cool a character is that???

7. Ramona from The Ramona series by Beverly Cleary

While she could definitely get into trouble, she usually made it out of her scrapes and troubles just fine in the end. Also, does anyone else remember the TV series they had for the books? 

8. Evie from Paranormalcy by Kiersten White

She's funny, tough, and she has a pink taser, making her one of the most memorable and adorable characters on my list.

9. Alexia Terabotti from Soulless (The Manga) by Gail Carriger & Rem

Okay, since I haven't read the book yet, I can only judge by the manga, but holy schnikies is Alexia not one of the coolest heroines ever! She knows how to kick some serious butt all while in traditional Victorian England attire, and that makes her even more awesome.

10. Carol, Stevie, and Lisa from The Saddle Club by Bonnie Bryant

I grew up with these three girls, and with their love of horses rivaling my own, I think it's only fair to have them on this list (especially with as many books in the series I had).

Top Ten Books on My Spring TBR List

(In no particular order)

1. Dragonswood by Janet Lee Carey

This one is perfect for spring, especially looking at the cover!

2. Touch of Frost by Jennifer Estep

It's high-time I started on my other mythology-related school series.

3. Across the Universe by Beth Revis

I feel like... exploring new horizons. Space, here I come!

4. Fated by Alyson Noel

The cover has more of an autumn feel to it, but I still want to read it.

5. The International Kissing Club by Ivy Adams

What happens in Spring? Spring fever and romance!

6. The List by Siobhan Vivian

I'm just eager to read this one since Siobhan Vivian is coming to Teen Book Con.

7. Awake at Dawn by C.C. Hunter

Another beautiful springtime cover just puts me in the mood to read.

8. Goddess Boot Camp by Tera Lynn Childs

While I hesitate to read this one (because I'm sure it'll be just as funny and light as Oh. My. Gods. and I love to savor my funny reads), I simply must know how Phoebe gets herself out of this pickle.

9. Trial by Fire by Jennifer Lynn Barnes

Sequels, sequels, I'm surrounded by sequels that I must read!

10. Supernaturally by Kiersten White

Just proving my reason for #9 is true.
