I've decided to start hopping this as well.  :)

"Who Is The One Author That You Are Dying To Meet?"
 
Ooh, this is a hard one!  Impossible even.  I'd meet any author and be over the moon. 
But, ones I'd love to meet are:
  • Cassandra Clare: author of The Mortal Instruments and the Infernal Devices
  • Suzanne Collins: author of the Hunger Games trilogy
  • Richelle Mead: author of Vampire Academy
  • Anthony Horowitz: author of Alex Rider
  • Terry Pratchett: author of the Discworld novels
  • Jane Austen: author of Pride and Prejudice and Emma
Oh, I'm so cheating!  Ok, the one I'd give my left arm to meet is Cassandra Clare.  She has a brilliant mind, and her books are just incredible.


Yes, yes, I cheated a lot.  But I just want to meet so many authors! 

If you've found me through the Hop, drop a link.  If not, who would you die to meet?

Have a great weekend all!

"What Book-To-Movie Adaptation Have You Most Liked?  Which Have You Dislike?"

Hmm, I really didn't like the movie adaptation of The Northern Lights by Phillip Pullman (The Golden Compass).  It just didn't feel right.  And they changed it all.  If you didn't compare it to the book, it was great, but since I'd read them, it was just... wrong.
Also, the Eragon movie totally didn't stick to the book.  It really annoyed me.

I loved the movie adaptations of Lord of the Rings, even if it was insanely long.  And the Harry Potters are always done well.  I love the Narnia films as well.  (:


Now, this is my first Blogger Hop.  I've seen them everywhere, and therefore I felt left out.  So, I've joined in the hopping!  (:

Have a great weekend - again! ;)
