Hi - got to thinking of all the books I've read which have been made into films etc and how much I enjoyed some or perhaps thought the film let the book down a little? I can think of many books I've enjoyed a great deal which unfortunately haven't been put on screen - I wish some producer would!
I would love to hear from other contributors their recommendations but perhaps I can, after a lot of thought, start the ball rolling with one of mine?
I think "The Belle Fields" and its sequel "Ashes of Roses" by Lora Adams would be my initial choice. It would be a mixture of Downton Abbey, Upstairs Downstairs, Love Story with a bit of Catherine Cookson thrown in for good measure! Plenty of twists and turns and unforeseen events both happy, moving and in some parts sad.
Would enjoy hearing the thoughts of others - have a lovely Christmas and best wishes for the New Year!!
