Feature & Follow *3*

Hey everyone! I'm glad again to participate and just hope you all have a wonderful weekend! :)

Feature & Follow is a blog hop hosted by Parajunkee & Alison Can Read. The purpose is to meet  people and gain more  followers in the book blogging community.


Q: Books are turned into movies all the time! Turn it around. What movie would make a great book?


This is hard, but the first film that literally came to mind was (500) Days Of Summer! A couple years ago, when I started College, this was the film everybody was talking about that September, and I was one of them as I really loved it and still do! This was written by two writers and was an original screenplay, and wow, it's just a great story with Two Actors I just love! It would really make a great Novel...perhaps in the New Adult, Contemporary Romance Area? :)

What Movie Do You Think Would Make A Great Book?

    A lot of my friends didn't like this movie but I loved it! I really loved it. It had a heartbreaking ending but still, you get to love the characters and fall in love with them. I also loved the soundtrack. ;-) This would make a great book, I agree. I think Blue Valentine would also be a great book. Or Before Sunrise/Before Sunset movies too :)

      I understand how people might not like this film, but yes, I agree, I really enjoyed the characters too and once in a while I personally just like to watch something a little more realistic, something that can be relatable, just like a book sometimes :)

      I've heard and seen previews of 'Blue Valentine' and Michelle Williams is such a great actress, so this film has been on my list to see for a while now.
      Thank you so much for stopping by. I really appreciate it!
