We can all talk about books that have been made into movies or TV shows, but what about the reverse? Can you think of any TV shows or movies that would have made good books? Here are some that sprang to mind.

1. LOST
Okay, LOST had a terrible ending, can we agree? But during its run, I was very invested in the mystery and the lore. It would have made an interesting book or series, especially if someone could have wrapped it up in a way that would have satisfied readers.

2. Timeless
I loved this historical time travel show! The heroes and their goal to not change the past in order to preserve the present was a pleasantly different twist, and I liked the interesting characters. I would definitely read this in novel form!

3. Covert Affairs
Spy drama! Once again, this show had interesting characters and all the action would have been great to explore in written form. So many places and plot lines to delve into!

4. Gilmore Girls
I'm a sucker for small town stories, and Lorelai, Rory, and gang brought to life a really fun one. Can't you imagine the quick banter jumping off the page? This is one you'd alternately love and want to throw across the room.

5. Full House
Danny, Jesse, and Joey would have made great book heroes, and DJ, Stephanie, and Michelle would have won the hearts of readers. I feel like their adventures would translate well to a page-turning, feel-good series.

Wasn't there a Full House book set? I am pretty sure there is! I also agree with The Gilmore Girls and someone else put this on their list today too. I went in a different direction. Have a great week!
