    I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings. It was made into a TV movie back in the 70's, but they changed and cut out a lot of the story and the actress that played Maya Angelou was horrible. Esther Rolle as Maya's grandmother was the only good thing about it.

      I know Eragon got a movie adaptation, but it deserves a better adaptation and the other books in the series deserve to be adapted faithfully. I found the books to be okay, but the movie version we ended up with was terrible and that's why the other books were never adapted into movies. The other books in The Chronicles Of Prydain series should get adapted too. Lastly, we have yet to get a good Lovecraft based movie other than the 40 minute black and white silent film.

        I would like to see Charlaine Harris' Midnight Texas series be made into a TV series (on the regular channels). I would like "Cat Magic" by Jonathan Barry and Whitley Strieber made into a movie.

            The Sabriel/Adhesion series by Garth Nix.
            I, too, would also like some good Lovecraft adaptions.

              Either The War of Two or Burr. That fued and resulting duel and aftermath is deserving of a major motion picture.

                  It might be tricky to adapt because it's an epistolary novel, but I'd be interested in seeing Code Name Verity as a film.

                                    Are you serious? I'm on the spectrum. So I NEVER know if and when you are being serious.
                                    I didnt originally respond to you. My first post was directed at the OP.
                                    The Alchemist was a great read. What am I missing?

                                        I saw it but didnt really read or pay attention to it.
                                        Again my purpose of entering this thread was strictly to mention the Alchemist.
                                        That's why that was all I posted. Not sure what I did wrong. But if you say so.
                                        Sorry. For whatever you think I purposely did.
