Book-to-movie Challenge 8/15
->
I will try to do 15. The only rule is: no old classics, at least not the sort where the movie is also old. Like Gone with the Wind. I will try to find the sort of books that I did not know where out there even I have seen the movie. Preferably no young adult series, only because I will read those anyway. So this is for me to find something different!
Ideas for Book to movie:
Suggestions are very welcome!

Short stories & Novellas etc.I will start a challenge like this because I have kindle on my computer and phone and I think I will read some short stories on it. The free kinds!
1. Alexis Shore - Sex with a Lingering Kiss 3/5.This is my first erotic read, but I thought I´d give it a chance. It was a lot nicer than I had thought it would be. It wasn´t too naughty for me. The way it was written was interesting, letters found in a home, of the previous owners.
2. Carey Corp - The Way Life Was Forever 4/5.From the very beginning I was intrigued by this story and the world of it with it's moonwalkers and sun-dwellers. I really liked it and I would have gladly read more about it!
It did feel a bit rushed, especially the ending. I had to turn back pages because I thought I had skipped a part. Also their bonding was too fast. But it was a short story so I don't mind that much.
As an entire book this story would in my opinion have great potential the characters would have more into them and the events would get more thrill and excitement in them.
3. Dee Tenorio - A Wedding Story 3/5Quite a basic love story. It was fun enough and even the plot seemed pretty basic there was somehow more believability to it than I would have thought it to have. This one did not go too fast from one thing to another, or if it did, it was explained by the characters history. At least enough for me.
4. Nikita Black - Cajun Hot 1/5Another erotica. And maybe too much this time, it was not my cup of tea. I didn´t believe the story at all. Then again it took so long for me to finish this, that I don´t think I got a good idea about the whole thing. I only read little bits here and there.
5. Aria - Allison M. Dickson 3/5I could easily imagine this as a movie. It was good, but nothing special for me.
I had to delete all these from my bookshelves on goodreads because it kept counting them as books read on my GR Challenge, but at least I have them here.
24 to 48 Hour Mini Challenge 6.-7.1.2012 As there is 3 days of no work ahead of me, I will do a mini challenge or maybe even two! I will start with the 48 hour challenge, Friday & Saturday. My goal is to get to Intern level (3-4 categories):

.March Midterm Mania Mini Challenge: 4/4
You don't even need to read a book to get top marks in this challenge, so hopefully we see lots of participants!
1. Classical Literature with Prof. Rita Booke: I think that Hunger Games will still be loved long from now, but I´m quite sure that Lord of the Rings at least will be a classic still after 100 years from now. It has already lasted a long time but I believe it will continue to be read by people of all ages.
2. Sociology 101 with Prof. B. Friendly: I read Shiver.
3. Child Psychology with Prof. U. R. A. Kidd: I read Northern Lights.
4. Nutrition with Prof. I. M. Hungree: I read The Hunger Games.

Rain showers may cloud our day but soon after flowers are on their way!

2. Lightning Strike: I read Shiver Trilogy Boxset. In this series many of the characters have to grow as persons, especially Cole, I think. He starts out as someone not really caring about anything or anyone but turns out as a very important person for the story..

4. Daisy Chain: I read Linger.
