Just please use the picture beside here and include in your post "MeMe courtesy of The Witch Snitch", and include a link to my page! Also, leave a link to your post in the comments on my post so we can all see each other's answers!When: Here are the questions for the next ten Thursdays.Want to participate? See how here.
If you could be any witch from any book, movie, or television series, who would you be and why?This was a hard choice for me. At first glance, of course I would pick Winifred Sanderson, but that would be too obvious. At second glance, I would pick Glinda because of her pretty dresses and flying bubbles, but that would be too obvious as well. So, I finally settled with the voluptuously evil Ursula. The sultry sea witch can take what she pleases from willing souls, and uses her manipulative persuasion to get it. Although, yes, I wouldn't want to be evil, it would still be fun to get to be anything you want to be. Also - I love her curves and how proud she is of them! Shake it, girl.

Top Ten Books I'd Love To See As Movies/Tv Shows
I love this week’s Top Ten. Hopefully all of our posts will give a nudge to Hollywood.
Number #10
Title: Article 5 (#1)
Author: Kristen Simmons
Genre: YA Dystopian
Number of Pages: 362
Release Date: January 1st, 2012 by Tor Teen
This story would make a gritty, realistically violent movie or television series. The world is vast and over controlled by the new America that replaces the Bill of Rights with the Moral Statutes. I’d love to watch the romance between Ember and Chase. The book is perfect blend of action and little moments that make you swoon.
Number #9
Title: Under the Never Sky
Author: Veronica Rossi
Genre: YA Dystopian
Number of Pages: 374
Release Date: January 3rd, 2012 by HarperCollins
PLEASE OH PLEASE make this a movie. I will beg on my hands and knees. This is seriously one of my all-time favorite series with a perfect example of a swoon-worthy romance. Perry is my numero uno book boyfriend. You can’t have him.
Number #8
Title: Dorothy Must Die (#1)
Author: Danielle Paige
Genre: YA Retelling
Number of Pages: 452
Release Date: April 1st, 2014 by HarperCollins
Need I explain. Wizard of Oz. Retelling. There, explained.
Number #7
Title: Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles #1)
Author: Marissa Meyer
Genre: YA Retelling/Science Fiction
Number of Pages: 390
Release Date: January 3rd, 2012 by Feiwel & Friends
This tale is amazingly descriptive with a world I feel like I MUST see. I would love to see the words reimagined and shown on screen.
Number #6
Title: Thirteen Reasons Why
Author: Jay Asher
Genre: YA Contemporary
Number of Pages: 304
Release Date: October 18th, 2007 by Razorbill
Hauntingly beautiful and true to the realistic troubles that young people face, this is a story that needs to be told. If not by someone reading Jay Asher’s eloquent words, then by a big screen.
Number #5
Title: Redeeming Love
Author: Francine Rivers
Genre: Historical Fiction
Number of Pages: 464
Release Date: May 9th, 2005 by Multnomah Books
Truthfully, I don’t usually read Christian fiction, which is what this book is filed under, but this is a story that anyone can enjoy and take a great deal from. It tells the tale of a young girl that is sold to prostitution, and slowly learns what real love and healing means. I cried many, many times while reading.
Number #4
Title: The Crucible
Author: Arthur Miller, Christopher Bigsby
Genre: YA Historical Fiction
Number of Pages: 143
Release Date: March 25th, 2004 by Penguin Classics
I know this has already been made into a movie, but I would love to see this as a television series. This was a mournful time in our history, that can be mirrored to judgments we place on others today.
Number #3
Title: Bunnicula
Author: James Howe, Deborah Howe
Genre: YA Horror
Number of Pages: 128
Release Date: August 8th, 2006 by Atheneum Books for Young Readers (First published in 1979).
Laugh it up, because I would too. I’m actually not sure if it was ever made into a movie, but even so I’d love a remake. This is a comedic horror story about a vampire bunny. Oh, the nostalgia.
Number #2
Title: Sex Criminals, Vol. 1: One Weird Trick
Author: Matt Fraction and Chip Zdarsky
Genre: Romance/Comedic Graphic Novel
Number of Pages: 128
Release Date: April 29th, 2014 by Image Comics
This would make for one freaking hilarious (and rated R at least) movie. The art and little things you see in the background make this graphic novel an awesome ride start to finish. And it’s not just a story about sex. It has plot!
Number #1
Title: The Dead House
Author: Dawn Kurtagich
Genre: YA Thriller/Horror
Number of Pages: 440
Release Date: August 6th, 2015 by Orion Children’s Books
I haven’t even read this yet, and I already want to see the movie. -
Happy Thursday! It's almost Friday :) I have lots of reading to do this weekend... Drumroll please....This week's question:If you could be any character from Harry Potter, who would you be and why?
For me, its in between Hermione and Bellatrix Lestrange. I was a huge Ron-Hermione shipper, so I would love to experience their quirky, stumbling romance. They are just too cute to boot. Plus, Hermione is of course the smart one and can protect herself -quite- well. But honestly, I would be here pretty much for Ron.
As for Bellatrix? She is creepily brilliant. I would hate to be all evil, but if I had to be evil, I'd want to be crazy like her. In a way, she's so crazy that she is kinda awesome. Her abilities are quite powerful, that many are scared to face her. I always loved the scene where Hermione acted as Bellatrix!
Who would YOU be?
