Top Ten Tuesday

Welcome to my first ever Top Ten Tuesday post. Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by the sweet girls over at The Broke and the Bookish.

Top Ten Books I Would Love To See As A Movie/TV Show 

1. Sabriel by Garth Nix 

I know this book is so obscure because it was published way back when people haven't gotten around to read much YA fantasy books. But it is one of my all time favourite and I wished that more people would read it. I've always imagined Keira Knightley as Sabriel if this was made into a movie because she just seemed tailor made for it. A kick-ass necromancer who ended up saving and romancing a cursed prince is really an intriguing plot for a movie, if you ask me.

2. Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor
Angels, demons, forbidden romance, exotic beautiful Prague setting and a girl with blue hair. Just please make sure the actor who plays the angel; Akiva is to die for.

3. Cinder by Marissa Meyer
This book has anime elements all over it so maybe it is just appropriate to make it into a box-office success. A cyborg falling in love with a prince is just too delicious to pass up.

4. Paranormalcy by Kiersten White
It's like Legally Blonde meets Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Who wouldn't love to see a girly blonde with a pink taser hunting out supernaturals? I do!

5. Graceling by Kristin Cashore

Yup, I just love a strong heroine. And Lady Katsa certainly fits the bill. A girl blessed with the Grace of killing met a prince who can reads minds. Brilliant!

6. Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo

I know it will be tricky to turn this into a movie/tv show since it has a Russian setting but really that's the whole appeal.

7. Prophecy by Ellen Oh

Asian-inspired YA fantasy? Yes, we do need more of that.

8. Throne of Glass by Sarah Maas

I had mixed feelings about the first book but after recently reading the second, this series turned out to be one of my favourite.

9. Hex Hall by Rachel Hawkins

Funny, quirky with a healthy dose of paranormals running amok in a school for delinquent teen supernaturals! Gimme, gimme.

10. Outcast by Adrienne Kriess

The only stand alone in this list. I just love it because it is so funny and tragic at the same time.

That's it folks! I love to find out what YOU guys think should be in the list. Happy Tuesday!

Top Ten Tuesday

I'm so excited to participate in my first ever Top Ten Tuesday. It is an original feature/weekly meme created at The Broke and Bookish. This week's top ten is:

Top ten authors I would want to be at my table on Thanksgiving.

Oooh I don't celebrate Thanksgiving but let's just say hypothetically I would invite:

• 1. Enid Blyton: I have a thing for British writers. I love her books so much and read a lot of them when I was young.


• 2.Agatha Christie: Dame Agatha, the greatest mystery writer of all time. I would really like to know how a nice English lady like her have all this brilliant ideas to kill someone?


• 3. J.K Rowling: Harry Potter anyone? Enough said. And those accents..oh how lovely.


• 4. Stephen King: What an excellent dinner conversation we would have. Had any good scare lately?


• 5. L. M. Montgomery: Maybe she could be my 'kindred spirit' just like her character Anne and Diana from her book Anne of Green Gables.


• 6. Candace Bushnell: Sex and the City is my guilty pleasure. And I love to hear about NYC.


•  7. Kiersten White: She's damn funny and I love her Paranormalcy series.


•  8. Taherah Mafi: I know she's new but she sounds fun according to her blog.


•  9. Suzanne Collins: The genius behind Hunger Games.


• 10. William Shakespeare: Oooh since this is just hypothetical, I would love to have a chat with the Bard. His works are simply timeless.
