Q. What book that hasn't been turned into a movie (yet) would you most like to see make it to the big screen, and who would you like cast as your favorite character?




I would like to see either The Vampire Academy series turned into a movie, or the Iron Fey series.


As for casting, I think Angelina Jolie would make a fantastic Queen Mab in the Iron Fey and Nicole Kidman for Titiana. Those are the only two I can really see for the parts at the moment. As for the other major parts, I’d have to really think about it.


In the Vampire Academy series, that’s a tough one. I don’t know to be honest. I would have to get back to you on that later. But either way, it would be really great to see both of these series on the big screen in action!




Happy Friday!

    Hi, I'm a new follower! I haven't read the Vampire Academy books yet, but from how they're described I could see them making for a great movie! And I love the Iron Fey books! Great choices!

    I LOVE Julie Kagawa's Iron Fey series -- her writing is so vivid and beautiful, and I think her books would make amazing movies! :) Plus, VA is just pure awesomeness! It would be so cool to see these books on the big screen!

    Hello :) Nice blog! New follower. :D I love finding people who like the same types of books I do. Congrats on being a feature!

    I think that VA would make a better TV series then a movie. The pacing of the books seem they would lend themselves better to that.

    As for the Iron Fey series, I haven't read them yet but I have The Iron King on my shelf. I'll let you know what I think once I'm done it. :)

    Anyway, have a great day!

    Thank you everyone for the wonderful comments and follows! And glad to see the VA and Iron Fey support, too. Lol. :P
    @Valen- I didn't think of Saorise Ronan for Meghan at first, but now that you mention it and I see the pictures, I can really see her as the character! Nice suggestion!

    I agree with some of you, too. VA would be great as either a movie or a television series. As long as all of the books were done. :)

    Thanks again everyone. Coming by to visit soon! :)
