Feature and Follow Friday (#6)

Feature & Follow is hosted by Parajunkee of Parajunkee's View and Alison of Alison Can Read.  Each host will have their own Feature Blog and this way it’ll allow us to show off more new blogs!

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

A: It's been awhile for me since I've watched an amazing movie that wasn't originally a book.

...

Okay, I sat rubbing my eyes thinking for five or so minutes, and Cloverfield from 2008 popped into my head.  At first, I was like "That's ridiculous."  But after giving it some thought, I think it could make a really cool book.  Maybe give it alternating perspectives, bouncing from the group of people trying to save that one girl and get out of the city to the military planning their nuclear attack on the monster.  It could add to the suspense, like "Omg! Are they gonna make it out before they blow up NYC? Holy amazeballs!"

Mmm...maybe I'm just crazy and a little too into survival reads right now.

    1. Sorry you didn't like it. I think a lot of not-so-great movies could be awesome books. The books always better than the movie, right?
