Books To TV


Its rather interesting to see how many TV shows are based on books these days. We all know that True Blood is based on Charlaine Harris' Sookie books aka The Southern Vampires. And of course last years comedy Accidentally On Purpose was based on the memoirs of Mary Pols. Of course there's The Vampire Diaries and Gossip Girl too.

But did you know that two shows on Fox were based on novels? The now defunct Past Life was based on the M.J. Rose books, The Reincarnationist, The Hypnotist and The Memorist. Oh and Bones? There's a whole series of books by Kathy Reichs that inspired Bones. And how can you not love Bones!

Wowzas.

I've got a lot of reading to do. The question is, where to start?
