Action books have continued to inspire, like always! They have kept up their pace in the movies. I thought it was about time to make an update on this post. Do you wonder why I love action books? They always seem to snap you out of your every day routine that we are all so used to. Particularly the characters. You think "Man, I would not have been ready for that." Here are some more of my favorite action books that have been made into movies: Die Hard was based on the book Nothing Lasts Forever by Roderick Thorp, Die Hard 2 based on the book 58 minutes written by Walter Wager, and Shutter Island based on the book by Dennis Lehane. There are some great movies coming out, so there will be another update soon.

What Inspires the Writer in Me – Action Genres
Hi, and welcome to books galore! I enjoy action books very much, do you? When I am thinking of an action plot I reflect on some of my past hobbies. The hobbies I take part in to get a great action plot inspired in me are the things I find most exciting. I find watching action movies to be very exciting! This is one of my favorite things to do. Just when you think the movie has no more harm to deal with…BAM! Another disaster happens that requires some fast action. I get so used to this that I look for it when my plot just seems to be getting resolved. I love it in movies when something unexpected happens at the very end that leaves you jumping out of your seat puzzled. This is always something I think about doing in my books. I have to have a very good reason to give my characters a break at the end of my action books. This is just one of my many hobbies to get the action writer inspired in me. There are much, much, more.
