Question (8/31/2012) : What is the best cover of a book that you've read and loved?
My immediate reaction was going to be Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, but I didn't want to do two posts about that book so close to each other, so I chose differently - The Forest of Hands and Teeth. I don't like the cover as much as MPHPC, but I did like the story better. In fact, it's the best book I've read in a while (and is I think the only book that has ever influenced my dreams), which really reminds me I should write a review on it so I can encourage everyone else to read it too!
Question (8/31/2012) : What is the one book or series you are dying to see turned into a movie or a TV Series?
I promise I didn't even know what this question was when I answered the previous question, but my answer is actually the same. The Forest of Hands and Teeth all the way! Honestly, the only reason I picked up the book to begin with was because of the AMAZING book trailer we were shown at this year's FLYP Summer Reading Program workshop. I was told RandomBooks made the trailer using just teens in their library system.
I would appreciate a follow, IF you think my blog covering books and other ideas for Babies to Young Adults will appeal to you and/or help you in some way. I DO NOT want you to follow me just because you feel like you have to because I'm participating in the Hop, as I cannot promise the same to you. For instance, if your blogging specialty is erotic novels or adult books, I have nothing against you or your site, it's just not my cup of tea.
Have a great weekend!

I enjoyed that book as well!
ReplyDeleteMy follow friday! Please visit!
I was so confused when I started this FF until I realize Parajunkee & Alison had different questions.
I can imagine. I went with Alison's because the worst cover/best book was last week's question!
DeleteLOVE zombies!!! And this book is soooooo good! The cover conveys the creepiness perfectly.

Your blog is gorgeous! I love the colors you are using :) I can't find a way to follow you - underneath 'royal subjects' I only see an error message :( and I can't find an e-mail or RSS follow button anywhere.
ReplyDeleteHere's my FF post for this week. I'd love it if you stopped by to say hello, and maybe follow as well.
Have a wonderful weekend.
How sad! That is definitely where GFC is located. :(
DeleteI'll go visit you back right now! :)
Thank you for stopping by my page... and yes, you are right, I do not have GFC, because it's hosted on wordpress. However, linky follower works the same way, is free and easy to install...
DeleteIf not, you can also follow me via e-mail or RSS. Do you have e-mail following? oh, never mind, I found your RSS down on the page :) So I am now following you.
Have a great day.
I really want to start reading the Forest of Hands and Teeth series! It sounds so good! I like the cover change. I didn't like the original cover for the first book much. :)
