From Page to Screen: My Favorite Book-to-Movie & TV Adaptations

I love a good book-to-movie or TV show adaptation. There’s something special about watching a story you loved on the page come to life on screen. I’ve learned that going in with the mindset that it won’t be 100% like the book makes the experience way more enjoyable.

Below are five of my favorite adaptations (plus a bonus pick this week!), along with some upcoming adaptations of books I’ve read and loved—and a few more that are either already out or coming soon that are still on my TBR.

My Favorite Book-to-Screen Adaptations:

1. Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens
2. Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen
3. The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold
4. Pretty Little Liars by Sara Shepard
5. Along for the Ride by Sarah Dessen
6. The Housemaid by Freida McFadden

Upcoming Adaptations (Books I’ve Read & Loved):

• Reminders of Him by Colleen Hoover

• Verity by Colleen Hoover

Adaptations Already Out or Coming Soon (On My TBR):

• His and Hers by Alice Feeney (already out)

• The Bodyguard by Katherine Center (coming soon)

• The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood (coming soon)
