It's Friday and time for the weekly blog hop hosted by Crazy For Books. This week she's asking
"What is the one book or series you are dying to see turned into a movie or tv series?"
I'm never very anxious to see any book "Hollywood-ized" because so many of them turn out to be disappointments, but I did read a good travel book a while ago with a story that I think would translate well to film. It's called A Trip To The Beach by Melinda Blanchard and Robert Blanchard and my review is here. It's an appealing story about a couple who leave their comfortable life in the US to open a restaurant on the Caribbean island of Anguilla. It's a movie I would watch for the setting alone, but there's a good story and interesting characters to work with as well. I think it would be a fun film.
Check out the blog hop and visit some of the book blogs listed there. You may find a few new titles to read and maybe a blog or two you want to follow. Have a good weekend!

I know what you mean when books are turned into movies and get butchered one way or another. I still enjoy the movies though, but will always prefer the book.

Haven't heard of that book...so many interesting answers to this question and so many books I don't know.
