Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl where book lovers share their top ten lists on a given theme. This week’s theme is “Books You’d Mash Together (pick two books you think would make an epic story if combined).” Let’s take a look at some book combinations that would make for an interesting read:
1. Harry Potter and The Hunger Games: Imagine a world where wizards and witches are forced to participate in a deadly game similar to The Hunger Games. This mash-up would be full of magic, adventure, and heart-pounding action.
2. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: This combination already exists in the book by Seth Grahame-Smith, and it’s a delightful mix of classic literature and zombie horror. Who wouldn’t want to see Elizabeth Bennet slaying zombies with Mr. Darcy by her side?
3. Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and The Chronicles of Narnia: A journey through two fantastical worlds filled with whimsical creatures and magical landscapes would make for a thrilling and enchanting read.
4. The Great Gatsby and Gone Girl: A mix of 1920s glamour and deceitful mind games would create a captivating and darkly intriguing storyline.
5. The Fault in Our Stars and Me Before You: Two heartbreaking love stories merged together would tug at the heartstrings of readers and leave them reaching for the tissues.
6. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and The Da Vinci Code: A thrilling combination of mystery, conspiracy, and suspense that would keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very end.
7. Twilight and The Mortal Instruments: A blend of vampires, werewolves, and shadowhunters in a world where supernatural beings coexist would make for an action-packed and romantic tale.
8. The Lord of the Rings and Game of Thrones: Epic battles, political intrigue, and a cast of diverse characters set in a high fantasy world would make for a truly captivating and immersive story.
9. The Shining and Stranger Things: A mix of horror, supernatural powers, and a young group of misfit friends would create a spine-chilling and nostalgic read that pays homage to the classic Stephen King novel and the popular TV series.
10. Fifty Shades of Grey and Outlander: A steamy romance mixed with time travel and historical drama would create a passionate and adventurous tale that spans across different eras.
These are just a few book combinations that could make for an epic story if mashed together. What other book mash-ups can you think of that would make for an interesting and intriguing read?
