Here's the questions for this week:
Q: What is one book that you would be nervous to see a movie adaption of because you think the movie could never live up to the book?
A:
Well, I would say Battlefield Earth, but it's already been ruined by Travolta. Hmm, I'm not really sure. They did an amazing job with Coraline; however, I think I would be afraid of an adaptation of The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman.**Note: Since GFC only works for Blogger blogs, please sign up on my Linky Tools friends!

Hopping through. I'd be nervous about The Graveyard Book. It's such an incredible story. I doubt it would translate well

Oh, Neil's books would be hell to adapt well.

hmm I've never read any of those books, but I'm not a book to movie person so I guess it wouldn't surprise me if they ruin the book.

Well I watched the movie Coraline but I didn't read the book,I probably wouldn't have liked the movie if I had. Isn't that how it normally works?

Great picks - not a Hubbard fan, but The Graveyard Book was fantastic. Tim Burton might do a good job, but anybody else would worry me.
