I have always thought that Swan Song by Robert McCammon would make a great movie... what do you think would make a great movie?

I really want to see White Rose Rebel by Janet Paisley made into a movie... It's such a great story about a Scottish woman that led her tribe to war against the English in the late 1700's.0

Not Fade Away would be a good one if it was done right.
I've read it multiple times since my father died after a battle with cancer in 2006. The thing is, it's a book that seems like it's about cancer and dying but it's in fact about living and taking risks. And the best thing is, it's a true story. Here's the description from Amazon....
"Some people are born to lead and destined to teach by the example of living life to the fullest, and facing death with uncommon honesty and courage. Peter Barton was that kind of person.
Driven by the ideals that sparked a generation, he became an overachieving Everyman, a risk-taker who showed others what was possible. Then, in the prime of his life — hugely successful, happily married, and the father of three children — Peter faced the greatest of all challenges. Diagnosed with cancer, he began a journey that was not only frightening and appalling but also full of wonder and discovery.
With unflinching candor and even surprising humor, Not Fade Away finds meaning and solace in Peter’s confrontation with mortality. Celebrating life as it dares to stare down death, Peter's story addresses universal hopes and fears, and redefines the quietly heroic tasks of seeking clarity in the midst of pain, of breaking through to personal faith, and of achieving peace after bold and sincere questioning."0 -
I would love to actually be able to see the movie they made of Ways to Live Forever by Sally Nicholls....sadly it's impossible to find
It's about a boy with Leukaemia and how he decides to make a book of questions nobody answers...genuinely the only book I have ever read which never fails to make me cry...I love it...laughing for the first half and crying through the second every time...which is awkward on crowded trains but I always finish the book with a smile...and tears running down my face. Hands down my best find in the kids section of Waterstones lol0 -

maybe some of the Patricia Cornwell novels - I like the murder mystery stuff. although sometimes that stuff can get rather predictable.0
