My List of Awesomeness



Not everyone likes to read, but most of us enjoy a great story. What a lot of movie lovers do not know is that many great movies started off as great books, for example The Great Gatsby and The Hunger Games. There are still many books on the shelves that have never been turned into movies and thus the magic of their stories have been left to the enjoyment of readers.
However, I’ve always believed that a good story should be shared with the world, not left hidden away. And that’s why I really, really wish that these books would be made into movies…they’d make spectacular movies! 

Here’s my list of awesomeness:

  • The Gunslinger by Stephen King
  • Playing for Pizza by John Grisham
  • Looking for Alaska by John Green
  • Hell by Olen Butler
  • One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
  • The Woman Upstairs by Claire Messud
  • The Imperfectionists by Tom Rachman
  • Skinny Dip by Carl Hiaasen
  • Rainbow Six by Tom Clancy
  • Telegraph Avenue by Michael Chabon

    Hey I am a fan of John Grisham, I love his simple flowing style and his ability to hook you in with his plot. He caught me with 'The Firm', I read it all in one night and ended up with a splitting headache at 4.00am but I was happy!

    Yes I know all about those headaches and lack of sleep but pure satisfaction when you finish that book
