TV Show Books

Today's Top Five Wednesday topic is Books You'd Like to See As TV Shows. This is in honor of the fall TV schedule starting. Or so I hear. Since I don't watch TV I'll have to take their word for it. But, I did come up with 5 books I think would make a decent TV show series.

Crazy Rich Asians

Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan - Korean Drama is a popular thing right now, and this book is a lot like a soap opera. It's not Korean, but I bet it could open a market for Singaporean drama.

Jane Mysteries

The Jane Austen Mysteries by Stephanie Barron - I would watch that for sure!

Raven Boys

The Raven Cycle series by Maggie Stiefvater - For fans of the paranormal.

Brunetti

The Commissario Brunetti Mysteries by Donna Leon - Do you see a pattern? Yeah, all my favorites. But this one would be beautiful.

Lumberjanes

The Lumberjanes Graphic Novels by Noelle Stevenson - This would be awesome! Maybe a little much for prime time TV, but HBO could pull it off.

There. I did it. 5 books that would make good TV series. What would you like to see?
