Have you ever read a book that would make a great movie?

When I write, I see the story play out in my head like a movie.

So when I see books like Hunger Games and Twilight come to life on screen, I get really excited.

Have you ever read a book that you thought would make a great movie?
What was it?
Why do you think it would work so well on screen?

Personally (and I know this will probably sounds biased!), I think the Time Spirit Trilogy would make excellent movies. The stories are fast paced and have good action sequences. I'd love to see the history brought to life. Every time Gemma travels back in time she gets to go to some very cool places. It would be so much fun to see it all on screen. A total dream come true.

I'm also reading another great book at the moment that would work well on screen - Dead Radiance. It's about a teenage girl who is actually a Valkyrie. She gets to meet Odin and discover this amazing world. I'd love to see it brought to life. It would be amazing.

So - what do you think?
Any books out there that should be brought to the attention of Hollywood?
